Young Democrats of Greater St. Louis

The campaign season is upon us, and we need to work hard to make sure our Democratic Leaders continue their work in DC!

But first let’s have some fun with Congressman Russ Carnahan.

Join Russ for St. Louis’ own Mardi Gras Parade Saturday, February 13.We will show our support for Russ atop an antique fire engine and distribute official ‘Congressman of Soulard’ beads to cheering parade goers.  Parade gets started at 11 am, but volunteers will need to get there a bit early.  Call or email Ivana at 314-534-2004 or ivana@russcarnahan.com for details.

If you rather watch the parade from the sidelines you have another opportunity to join Russ and offer your support.  On Monday, March 8 join Russ for an early St. Patrick’s Day Celebration fundraiser at McGurk’s Irish Pub from 5:30 to 7:30.

Can’t make it March 8, but want to help?  Donate here.

Russ has consistently fought for working families and to responsibly invest in our country’s future.  You’re help is needed.  If you’re unable to join us for these two events please make a contribution today or sign up to volunteer for the campaign.

…at least it would have been if we continued this tradition! Members of our chapter from the late 70’s and 80’s tell us this used to be THE event of the year. Hopefully we can get it back to it’s glory days! So join us this Saturday!

The committee met last month and made some recomendations to revise the bylaws.

Posted are those recomendations. We will vote to ratify these revisions at the August meeting on 8/31.

DFA members are organizing a training in Columbia, MO this October 3rd and 4th.

DFA Campaign Academy trainings exist to empower citizens with the tools to change their communities. Whether you are working to pressure your elected officials to pass a progressive agenda or planning a campaign to unseat them, the DFA Campaign Academy will help you make that happen.

These trainings are more than just academic exercises. We bring together dozens of progressive activists from across the region along with current (and future) candidates and elected officials. It’s a great chance to re-connect with friends from the last campaign, look for a new job or find a volunteer opportunity.

Space is limited. RSVP today so you don’t miss out!
