Mole's Progressive Democrat

The Progressive Democrat Newsletter grew out of the frustration of the 2004 election. Originally intended for New York City progressives, its readership is now national. For anyone who wants to be alerted by email whenever this newsletter is updated (usually weekly), please send your email address and let me know what state you live in (so I can keep track of my readership).

    Oakland County, MI Focus

    Here are some local Democratic clubs and events in the Rochester/Oakland County area of Michigan


    Rochester, MI Sierra Club:
    http://www.meetup.com/RochesterEcos/

    We started as a part of the Sierra Club's Oakland County, MI Building Environmental Communities Campaign in 2004 and became all volunteer run in 2008. As of 2009, we have been working under the umbrella of Sierra Club's Great Lakes Program. We are a local grassroots group of environmental activists working to make a difference in our community. We are based in the Rochester Hills/Rochester, MI area, but have expanded our outreach to include Auburn Hills, Orion and other surrounding cities from Oakland County. We discuss and promote several environmental causes, although our main focus is water quality and protecting the Great Lakes. We have many exciting events coming up. Click here to join us!
