Happy Pride Month! It was wonderful to join the LGBTQ+ caucus to kick off June this weekend at their conference in Sarasota. Congratulations on a successful event!
In April, Democrats filled every single congressional seat and as we enter June we are working hard to fill every state house and senate seat as well. Please contact our Candidates & Campaign Director Danielle Hawk for more information on upcoming filing deadlines.
Yesterday, our District-Level Delegates to the National Convention met to confirm the Biden Campaign slate of At-Large, PLEO, Alternate, and Standing Committee members. We congratulate the new members of our delegation on their selection and thank everyone who applied.
Remember to join us this evening for our All Dems Call to hear updates on the FDP, featuring special guests from the Biden campaign! RSVP below for more.
