Issue 52 – December 30, 2025

GVI 2025 Year in Review

2025 was a powerful year for Genesee Valley Indivisible — we are committed to defending democracy, advancing justice, and amplifying community voices. From May through October and into the winter season, members and allies organized, marched, rallied, and stood up for core democratic values locally and in solidarity with national movements.
