2019 Membership Drive

published by Cheryl Grossman on Wed, 07/20/2016 - 00:23

UAPA began in 2004 and continues to help elect progressive candidates to all levels of government.  We do this by organizing educational programs, debate watch parties, our website and newsletter, as well as by notifying volunteers of opportunities to help campaigns, making contributions, and offering yard signs and bumper stickers that enable progressives to “take a stand”.  All of this requires effort and money and the UAPA Executive Committee decided to request annual dues of $25, beginning in May 2016.
