So this reads like a whos-who of liberal organizations… but I fail to see any organizations representing local industry, organizations/businesses that provide residents electricity, food, etc…

Thanks for the feedback. I think reaching out to energy and food providers is a great idea, and I will do that and I invite you and others to extend that invitation. The goal is to have many perspectives represented. That said, I’m pleased at the number of small businesses, restaurants, architects, builders, real estate folks, and other nonpartisan groups who have partnered so far.
