THE ANNOUNCEMENTS GROUP

• Announcements are only about DA Events & Voting Updates
• These Announcements will be posted by DA Board Members only
• To ask questions: Members should message the DemocratsAbroad WeChat Account directly
• To discuss current events: Members should join relevant geographic, Caucus or volunteer groups

1. Keep all talk related to U.S. politics and policies only. No posts about our host country's government or actions is allowed. This is a DA Global rule to allow the org to function in all countries.
2. Contact the admin if you think you have an activity that would fit our Group. No spam allowed.
3. Remain civil - no personal attacks, no discriminatory remarks, no threatening other members, no talk about enacting violence or sexual acts.
