    Tentative Pendleton DSA Agenda for Jan 13th meeting
  1. Group song, led by George
  2. Reports
    1. Report on Walla Walla DSA chapter meeting of Monday, December 10th. Anyone? George, Dro, Pat, Ed, Marie all attended…
  3. Old Business
    1. Hello again to everyone!
    2. Pendleton DSA blog news. Will be a low-key seminar hosted by Pat after the meeting to get everyone (that wants to participate in that way) comfortable with the blog. Pat will send out invites to it again (via email) Saturday night.
    3. Round-the-table with everyone together for first time, get an idea what this is and what all of us would like from it.
    4. Umatilla Democrats: Pat will attend their meeting Monday night. See the attached agenda for them, it is very interesting! They meet at the Community Room on the back side of the City Hall (beneath the Library) at 6PM; all attendees are welcome to participate.
    5. Howard Zinn: The People's History of the United States : We are building up copies, and I will buy some more in Kennewick tomorrow while I'm there. What else should be on the reading list?
    6. Platform items: Start with Seattle DSA and work from there? Ed Struthers recommends 'money in politics' as a major addition to the platform, and indeed the national Dems (and AOC) have made it a priority and a new ethical principle that as little money should be taken, voluntarily, from large donors as is politically feasable.
    7. Anyone interested in attending Women’s March on Monday Jan 14th in Walla Walla? (Walla Walla DSA)
  4. New Business
    1. Steering Committee?
    2. Walden harassment at his town hall meeting on the 23rd? See UCD agenda attached!
    3. Should we become an actual DSA chapter?
    4. Should we start a ‘People’s History’ study group, and are there other books that we should include?
    5. Once-around-the-table.
  5. Wrap up
    1. Set new meeting date
    2. Adjourned

After-meeting
Cleanup so our hosts (Carol Hanks and the Great Pacific) will have us back.
Blog seminar with Pat.
