Look who made the news! Great coverage.

You can DO something and we make it easy for you.

Your contributions of time and talent will ELECT WOMEN! Your DuPage Dems News & Updates  DONATE NOW GO DUPAGE WOMEN! Despite the horror that is this presidency, the focus in our country is now, rightfully, on immigrants, our non-white citizens and women. FINALLY. It feels so uncomfortable now to face the truth but we must believe that it is a sign that we, as a country, are growing. LAST WEEK, we witnessed a continuation of the outrage and organization that can be so powerful if working people, the poor, women and minorities UNITE NO MATTER WHAT. Here are some great articles from last week's march and about women candidates coming to the fore! Suburbanites Join the Thousands of Marchers Why These Women Continue to Be Energized Daily Herald Catches the March in Pictures More Excellent Photos by Tina Tyson-Dunne The Silver Lining: LOTS of Great Women Candidates YES, I WILL MOVE THE NEIGHBORS NEAR ME TO THE POLLS! Just a few blocks makes all the difference when it comes to informing your neighbors and making sure they make and execute a plan to vote NO MATTER WHAT.  We will give you all the materials and support you need: contacts in your township, scripts for outreach and the list of likeliest Democratic voters in the blocks surrounding your home.  2 hours a week is all it takes and the uptick in turnout will amaze you and elect women and Democrats. Most importantly, you will be doing something to combat the frustration that Trump and company hopes will immobilize you.  Sign Up Here Right Now SAVE THE DATE APRIL 15 PLEASE save this date and plan to attend our Annual Gala, this year back at the Drury Lane. This event which provides a large portion of the monies needed to make sure we do our part in DuPage to: Elect a New Governor to turn this state around Elect a SWING BLOCK of Democrats to the DuPage County Board who will put the needs of all county citizens ahead of profits and handouts to wealthy Cronin supporters. Get more voters out to the primary polls than 2008! (We can do it together for sure!) Once we get that up and running, we'll bite into the congressional races!

The Time is still NOW.  "If we remember those times and places - and there are so many - where people have behaved magnificently, this gives us the energy to act, and at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don't have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory." Howard Zinn, A Power Governments Cannot Suppress Many of you were with us on January 9th, 2017 when more than 500 people stuffed themselves into the Wheaton Community Center to begin the work that will culminate with our victories in March and November...The time is now for us each to contribute in our "small way" and here are several ways that you can do that today. Find an action group that matches your talents and to which you are willing to commit a small amount of time to (we are also in need of more leadership if your time and inclinations permit!)  Commit to taking a little bit of time out of each week to work your DEMOCRACY BLOCKS, that is the few blocks around your home. Get those people to the polls and you are part of creating "the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction"--a better direction for all of your neighbors. Better jobs, better homes, better education, better healthcare and so much more. Volunteer Sign up Here    To support our local work financially, please give your monthly gift Here!
