Our Bookish Trip to the Twin Cities

Amanda, Ellyn & Rachel headed to the Twin Cities and visited 10 bookstores. They met with store owners and booksellers, explored the beautiful indies that the area has to offer and of course bought many books along the way.  Due to last week's tragedy at Uvalde, we did not release a new episode. We encourage everyone who listen's to this podcast and lives in the United States, to join us in contacting your representatives at the local, state, and federal levels, to call for common sense laws that are proven to reduce gun violence in all its forms.  Here’s a list to get you started President Joe Biden - 202-456-1111 Senator Chuck Grassley - 202-224-3744 Senator Joni Ernst - 202-224-3254 Representative Marianette Miller-Meeks - 202-225-6576 Representative Cindy Axne - (202) 225-5476 Representative Ashley Hinson - (202) 225-2911 Representative Randy Feenstra - (202) 225-4426   State Governor Kim Reynolds - 515-281-5211 Chapman (Senate President) - 515.650.3942 Zach Wahls (Senate Democratic Leader) - 515.281.3901 Pat Grassley (Speaker of the House) - 319.214.0351 Matt Windschitl (House Majority Leader) - 712.642.4334 Jennifer Konfrst (House Minority Leader) - (515) 281-3221 Brad Zaun (Head of the Senate Judiciary Committee) - 515.276.2025 To learn more about what you can do to prevent gun violence, explore https://www.everytown.org/ and https://momsdemandaction.org/
