I noticed that I'm named and quoted in this aricle.

Is there not a courtesy procedure when 'lifting' posts

Does the Green Party offer these benefits as well? Or,
do they only hire people as independent contractors or
part-time to get a pass on having to offer these
benefits? The very same benefits they demand all other
organizations offer to their employees.
I won't bother to inquire about the R
nom), there is no 'chamber of punishment' for doing
so. If you are an officer of the Party or in
leadership, it has been a praciced courtesy to step
down from your post while working on behalf of your
candidate.
Let's keep the focus of the two DFLers running for
this seat. You want
isions without
backlash. This is a political party, not the mafia,
and as of February 4th a DFLer will hold the 3rd Ward
seat with support of many other DFLers. It's not a
zero sum game for the DFL.
So, again, who told you pressure from 'higher ups' is
making them withdraw sup
