Countdown to Election Day 2024
Malibu High School Theatre Musical Production
“Spring Awakening“, the winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, is an angsty rock musical adaptation told by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater based on the seminal play by Frank Wedekind. Set in late 19th century Germany, the story is about the trials and tribulations of growing up. It explores the journey from adolescence to adulthood with a poignancy and passion that is illuminating and unforgettable. This landmark musical is an electrifying fusion of morality, sexuality and rock and roll that has exhilarated audiences across the nation like no other musical in years.

Temple Emanuel of Beverly Hills and Writers Bloc Present: Congressman Ted Lieu on Gun Violence Prevention–FREE TO THE PUBLIC. RSVP here.
February 17, 2019, 12:30pm. RSVP here. At Temple Emanuel, 8844 Burton Way Beverly Hills, CA 90211. Parking available on local streets and in the Temple’s reserved parking garage located at the corner of Burton Way and Herzl Way.
Gun violence prevention is not an issue for Democrats or Republicans, but it is one for all of us. Legislation for gun violence reform has become a call to action for members of all communities.
As more faith-based communities feel vulnerable, is there a relationship between gun access and hate crimes? What legislation can we anticipate in the current congress on these issues?
Join us for this free event, open to the public and hear from Representative Ted Lieu (CA-D), who has been a passionate advocate for sensible gun violence reform. In conversation with Rabbi Sarah Bassin of Temple Emanuel of Beverly Hills. Seating is limited. RSVP here.
This event is FREE to the public.
Presented with the Jewish Center for Justice and the California Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism.

![Meet Presidential Candidate Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) @ Home of Sarah Timberman & Ed Redlich](https://malibudemocraticclub.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Sherrod-Brown-300x169.jpg)
Meet + Greet
Democratic Presidential Candidate
SENATOR SHERROD BROWN
RSVP: Jentwelve@gmail.com
Come to this unique opportunity to meet one of the Democratic Presidential candidates face-to-face, and hear what a successful progressive Democrat from the midwest – the critical battleground state of Ohio – thinks is way to win back the White House in 2020.
This past November, Senator Sherrod Brown, a progressive/populist Democrat from Ohio, won a 3rd term in a state that President Trump claimed by eight points in 2016. In his victory speech, Mr. Brown said his re-election was proof that a progressive agenda could gain traction in the 2020 election.
One after another, the Democratic candidates in Ohio fell. Brown was the only major Democrat to win a statewide seat in Ohio.
Sydney Ember of the New York Times reported on Nov. 15, 2018:
“Let our country — let our nation’s citizens, our Democratic Party, my fellow elected officials all over the country — let them all cast their eyes towards the heartland,” Mr. Brown said from the stage, dispelling the sense of disappointment that had begun to descend.
Then, his gravelly voice rasping out a crescendo, he made it clear where he thought his party could forge its path to success: his triumphant campaign, he said, was the “blueprint for America for 2020.” The revelers roared.

![Testify at the LA County Woolsey Fire 1st "Listening Session" @ Pepperdine U, Elkins Auditorium](https://malibudemocraticclub.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/LATaskForceListenSessions-300x150.png)
LA County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl and a task force of more than two dozen county, city, state, and federal agency and community leaders will be present during two public Listening Sessions on February 23 and March 3 to hear from residents affected by the Woolsey Fire.
The Public Listening Sessions will be held on February 23 and March 3 to capture the experiences of residents affected by the Woolsey Fire. In December, the LA County Board of Supervisors approved a comprehensive review of the Wolsey Fire response and recovery. The motion asked for a specific assessment about emergency notification and procedures, strategic communications during the fire and its aftermath, and community repopulation notification and procedures.
The public testimony during the Listening Sessions will inform the report being prepared by LA County, so that it can accurately reflect the experiences of those most affected, and gather recommendations for improvements that could be put into place for every stage of such a wildfire. LA County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl and a Task Force of more than two dozen community leaders will be present during the Sessions to listen to the public testimony.
The Listening Sessions will be held on Saturday, February 23rd from 10am-3pm in Malibu at Elkins Auditorium at Pepperdine University, and Sunday, March 3rd from 10am-3pm at King Gillette Ranch.
The Woolsey Fire, a fast-moving brush fire that was 14 miles wide, with a footprint of 150 square miles, and driven by gusts of up to 70 mph, was the most destructive fire L.A. County has ever seen. It moved from the 101 Freeway to the Pacific Ocean in just five hours. Seventy thousand homes, businesses, and other structures lay in the fire’s path, and a quarter of a million people were evacuated.
