“There is a group of extremists in the House that is controlling the agenda and that has to stop.” – Sen. Amy Klobuchar
When Wyandotte was in Congressman John Dingell’s district, every year he held a fundraiser at the Yack Arena. That ended in 2001 when redistricting took Wyandotte away. But, now, thanks to re-redistricting, Wyandotte is again represented by the Dean of the House and the Yack Dinner, aka “A Noteworthy Night with Congressman John D. Dingell“, is back!
Along with an all-star Democratic cast featuring Debbie Dingell, Senator Carl Levin, Congressman John Conyers, and the next Governor of Michigan Mark Schauer, we were privileged to have Senator Amy Klobuchar from Minnesota. She gave an inspirational speech saying she’s looking forward to the next time she comes to Michigan and we have returned control of our blue state back to Democrats.
Anne and I were there as guests of MI-52 Democratic candidate Pam Byrnes. She’s got a tough race ahead of her and could use a little financial love. Make your oh-so-important donations HERE.
Here are some photos, all by Anne Savage, from last night’s gala event.
