Grand Rapids United Progressives
We are a group of progressives who work on platform issues that affect all of us, and demand justice ALL PEOPLE!!! We volunteer, canvass, write letters, attend City Commission Meetings and work in the community to make the changes necessary for a thriving democracy. We support changing a corrupt political system by supporting progressives, overall. Our members vary from Independent, Green Party and Tulsi Gabbarb supporters and very progressive Dems, who hope to change the party to be representative of the people. Even disgruntled Republicans and Democrats are welcome!! As long as you're progressive and don't represent the establishment, you're welcome.
