We are a group committed to developing a grassroots network throughout the State of Wisconsin aligned with Democracy for America, the national organization founded by former presidential candidate Howard Dean. Our goal is to develop strong, sustained grassroots participation in American democracy. We work to increase citizen engagement with the political process through voting, communicating with elected officials, reforming and strengthening the Democratic Party, and promoting candidates who support progressive values of peace, social justice and economic opportunities for all Americans. We are also committed to working with Democracy for America to fight against the influence and agenda of the two pillars of Republican political control in America: the far right wing and their radical, divisive policies, and the corporate special interests that dominate and fund our political system.
