Marcy Winograd is a long-time activist for peace and social justice
running against corporate / Blue Dog incumbent Jane Harman (CA-36) in
the June 8 Democratic primary. Marcy wants to redirect our priorities
from war spending and corporate greed to job creation, world-class
education, health care, and energy independence through a Green New
Deal. While Jane Harman famously called herself "The Best Republican in
the Democratic Party," the Party named Marcy a "Democrat of the Year."
Come see why the San Francisco Chronicle named this one of seven
national races to watch.
