We’ve Got Issues: Recent Episodes
Fuerte Network
On this episode of We've Got Issues we discussed the Arizona Primary, New SCOTUS decisions, and our Rent is Too High Campaign! It may seem like nothing is going our way after the latest SCOTUS decisions, and all of the attacks on our democracy but that is why is so crucial to be an informed and knowledgeable voter. Voting while being informed is a tool we have and need to utilize! This impacts us in so many ways, especially on a local level. Being informed and voting on what helps your community will help us in this fight for affordable housing.
