The BB Dem Club is going online! Join us for our April meeting via Zoom Video Conferencing. 

We will hear from Elizabeth Welch, Democratic Candidate for Michigan's State Supreme Court. Ms. Welch is a West MI lawyer with 20 years of experience. Welch is an advocate for equity in education and protection of our natural resources. She has served for seven years on the East Grand Rapids Board of Education.

Dave Coulter, Oakland County Executive and Democratic Candidate for the same office, will be with us to talk about Oakland County's response to COVID-19 as well as his vision for the County in 2020.

Our Precinct Delegate liaison Debbie Rosenman will talk about the opportunity to become a Democratic Precinct Delegate.  A Precinct Delegate is someone who connects with other strong Democrats in their precinct to inform them about voting in the November election. It is easy and can be done from the comfort of your home. What a great way to have a sense of satisfaction that you are doing your part to get out the vote.

Finally, we'll hear from our own Chairman Charles Gaba who will be briefly explaining the healthcare coverage options for people who've lost employer-based coverage and how it ties in with the expanded unemployment benefits.
