This edition of the Victories & Good News Roundup<\/span><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0has been long in coming, on account of summer travels, general busyness of our all-volunteer team, and our desire to time the release to a moment when we all needed a big boost. The confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court seems like such a moment. In the light of this vote, we will be reassessing our priorities for where to direct our resistance energies. <\/span><\/p>\n

But know this: We persist.<\/span> <\/strong><\/span>This is a fight for the soul of our country, the rule of law, the most vulnerable among us, the survival of our planet, and justice. We are in this for the long haul. Which is why we pause every once in a while to recall and savor our victories. Ponder them. Let them nourish your spirit. And know that we are not alone.<\/span><\/p>\n
