They will continue to partner with Dover’s working class community to advocate for environmental preservation and reparation with responsive and transparent governance in both English and Spanish. They are committed to advance all Our Revolution issues at the local level, while contributing to Our Revolution efforts at the state and national level, particularly the push to cancel student debt and pass the Medicare for All and the Green New Deal” said Our Revolution’s national organizing coordinator Anna-Marta Visky.
