Saving Democracy and Labortories of Autocracy are recent books authored by former U.S. Rep. (OH) David Pepper. He answers the question we are all asking ourselves – What can I do to make a difference? - using a footprint as a powerful call to action. Save the date to attend Lunch with League on Wednesday, Feb. 21st.
