Hey Bernie Fam! 👴🏻 We know it’s been a while since we last posted, but in the spirit of organizing for progress at the local level we wanted to share a new documentary that some of our allies (and former Bernie organizers!) have been working on: County: A Documentary. It's an investigative and informative piece on County Committee in New York City, the political machines that run them, and the reformers (like many of you!) who are involved in mobilizing new people to run for office 💪 The filmmaker expects to complete the project by the end of year, just in time for the next election cycle. So we hope the film will help to inspire and motivate folks to run for County Committee positions in 2022.

*Please also consider donating to this project! They are trying to raise $8,000 for "COUNTY: A Documentary." Making a film is costly, and they hope to screen and distribute the film ahead of petitioning in early 2022. So any support you can give to make this happen would be greatly appreciated. Here is the GoFundMe page to contribute:
