The Rock County Progressives welcome a presentation from State Representative Melissa Sargent of Madison.
“Rep. Melissa Sargent encourages citizens to stand up in the face of Walker’s attacks on public education, working people, and the environment,” said Chuck Ogg of the Rock County Progressives. “As she says in the Cap Times (where she is a frequent contributor) on December 22, 2016, ‘Now is not the time to cut and run, or abandon what we believe in our core — that a government works best when it is working for the betterment of its people.’ Therefore the Progressives are excited to have Melissa speak on this at thier upcoming educational forum, ‘The Progressive Agenda and the Resistance.’
Sargent has served the 48th district since 2012, having won with 83% of the vote .
This event will be held on Wednesday, April 12, at the Basics Cooperative Natural Foods Store in Janesville. This is an independent event not affiliated with Basics. The speaker will begin at 6:30 PM, doors will open at 6 PM. This event is free and open to the public.0606
