Common Sense
Our mission is to work as a non-partisan community to build stronger, safer schools. We believe basic isn’t good enough—our students deserve excellence in education. We are committed to working with our schools and our neighbors to ensure that school policies come from a place of inclusiveness and understanding, not bias, and curriculum represents and celebrates the diversity of our community and our world.

Progressive Buzz
Progressive Buzz is an independent group of Red, Wine and Blue and TroubleNation (an arm of RWB) focused on protecting and saving our democracy by getting sh*t done! We welcome people who are new to politics, longtime activists, Democrats, Republicans, Independents, non-affiliated peeps...you get the idea. Come join us in creating a comfortable safe space where we can form new friendships, learn, commiserate, and share our feelings about what’s happening locally and across the country. Our judgement-free meetings will be in someone’s home or at a fun venue like a wine bar to keep the vibe chill. During our meetings, some of us might drink wine, some of us might not, some of us may curse, some of us may not - all that matters is that you're okay with it either way. In addition to the social and bonding time, we will be getting down to business. We'll incorporate a brief educational component into each meeting with easy, localized calls to action. It might be as simple as calling elected officials, attending a school board meeting, or completing a training. You know us women, we get it done! The group is based out of Brigham City and open to anyone in the state who is willing to make the drive (we'll try to find venues all along the Layton-Logan front)! If you are unsure whether this group is for you, please check out https://redwine.blue/who-we-are/ and https://redwine.blue/our-values/

WAVE: (Williamson County) WillCo Activating Voter Engagement
WAVE (Williamson County- WillCo Activating Voter Engagement) is a nonpartisan grassroots movement committed to educating, empowering, and activating the electorate across Tennessee. If you are feeling politically abandoned, bewildered, or (temporarily) powerless, we're your people! We believe in returning to fair representation of all constituents, informed and educated voters, and courageous civic engagement. In an era of gerrymandering, polarization, and assumed party voting, WAVE advocates for a responsible electorate that won't be taken for granted. Our votes are earned - not assumed - and our voices won’t be silenced. Our group started in Williamson County, Tennessee, and our gerrymandered lines include (but not limited to): Williamson, Benton, Maury, Davidson, Dickson, Sumner, Stewart, Wilson, Montgomery, Hickman, Giles, Lewis, Humphreys, Perry, Lawrence, and Wayne counties. Bottomline, we welcome all Tennesseans to our group. Our non-partisan goals aren’t bound by party affiliation. We’re listening, talking, and working together to hold elected leaders (local, state, and federal) accountable to the people they serve. Help us build a coalition of educated, empowered Tennessee voters by joining the WAVE today.

Anchorage Women for Democracy
I've gathered 11 other women friends (all retired) together, we have had 3 meetings--tend to run every 5 weeks or so. We are currently winging the month to month dates--we Alaskans do a lot of traveling in the winter :-). We are focused on voting (as a group) and keeping our ranked choice voting in place. We communicate for rallies and other things of interest--and I think various combinations of folk will do other things. We've enjoyed our conversations, companionship, and speaker engagements. We are still exploring...definitely focused on community...and most of us are already active in a variety of ways. Unsure where this will go! But it felt good to start something.
