SUMMARY:Community Sing
DESCRIPTION:By Carolyn Classen\, blogger \n\n\n\n“Dear song lovers \n\n\n\nYou may argue that all songs are songs of love of one sort or another. \n\n\n\nValentine’s Day focuses on the need of humans to express their love to and for each other. Keeping lines of communication alive with possibility\,   \n\n\n\nSo the Free Community SING for February will explore the different ways love is sung about… the funny and foolish\, the careless and  helpless\, the false and true. All reaching for the truest love of all. \n\n\n\nI look forward to sing with you with all our heart.    \n\n\n\nKeep the beat\,” \n\n\n\nTed \n\n\n\nFREE COMMUNITY SING \n\n\n\nSUNDAY\, FEBRUARY 15 \n\n\n\n2:30-4 PM \n\n\n\nPIMA FRIENDS MEETING ROOM \n\n\n\n931 N 5TH AVE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\ninfo:520 628 9616 – ITZABOUTIME

SUMMARY:Rocque Perez\, candidate for LD20 Senator at DGT
DESCRIPTION:by Carolyn Classen\, blogger \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Please join us for a lively discussion and QA with recent Tucson City Council appointee\, and candidate for the Democratic nomination for AZ Senate in Legislative District 20\, Rocque Perez. Learn more about his campaign at RocquePerez.com.“Please join us for a lively discussion and QA with recent Tucson City Council appointee\, and candidate for the Democratic nomination for AZ Senate in Legislative District 20\, Rocque Perez. Learn more about his campaign at RocquePerez.com. \n\n\n\nYou Must Register in Advance for this Event:\n\n\n\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/ZomEJTjbRW2bm0cApmCJmA\n\n\n\nRocque is a fourth-generation Tucsonan raised by a working-class single mother. His call to service was shaped by political violence against our most vulnerable communities. Committed to their defense\, he was appointed to the Tucson City Council in 2025. As Arizona’s first Gen Z official to serve in city or county government\, Rocque brought a fresh voice to the Tucson City Council. \n\n\n\nDuring his short tenure\, he directed over half a million dollars into small businesses\, nonprofits\, schools\, and neighborhood projects; protected Tucson’s water by stopping a proposed data center and defending the University of Arizona from federal overreach; supported low-barrier and affordable housing; and preserved critical investments in early childhood education for Sunnyside and Flowing Wells families. \n\n\n\nAs a State Senator\, Rocque would take his service to the Capitol to defend our rights—from freedom from discrimination\, to the right to organize\, earn a fair living\, and afford housing\, to a quality public education\, fair and accessible elections\, and systems that keep families whole.” \n\n\n\nCarolyn’s note: Rocque was appointed to serve for 6 months as Ward 5 councilman in 2025\, upon retirement of long term Councilman Richard Fimbres. Rocque will face off in a Dem primary for this seat with LD20 Rep. Alma Hernandez\, running for senate. Current LD20 Senator Sally Gonzales is termed out\,now running for a House seat in same district. The other current LD20 Rep. is Betty Villegas\, running for re-election.  \n\n\n\nRocque just came out against RTA Next in a guest opinion: https://tucson.com/opinion/column/article_f34a040a-bf55-47cb-b4e4-28f8680d525d.html
