SUMMARY:Provisional Anti Fascist Working Group Meeting
DESCRIPTION:With the attacks from the Trump administration and the continued descent into fascism\, the organized left is a necessary force to maintain human dignity and empower the working class.

We will discuss the results from the resolution to oppose Automated License Plate Readers discussed at our August chapter meeting\, work towards the creation of an official working group charter\, and decide on future projects and organizing efforts. \nWe will meet Wednesday September 3 from 6-7 pm on Zoom.
