A critical moment for DC

These are difficult times for our city. We're facing threats to our autonomy, our rights, and our way of life. We need every organization in DC working together to protect our community.

But the local Democratic Party—the biggest political organization in the District—has been missing in action.

Too often, party leadership treats the Democratic State Committee like a social club. Their main priority? Securing tickets to the Democratic National Convention. Meanwhile, the real work of organizing, mobilizing, and protecting our neighbors falls to others.

Others have stepped up

When the Democratic Party failed to lead, other organizations rose to meet the moment.

Free DC has been at the forefront—organizing protests against threats to our democracy, educating citizens about their rights, and building real community power across all eight wards.

They've shown us what effective grassroots organizing looks like. They've proven that Washingtonians, when brought together with purpose and energy, can make a real difference.

Bringing that energy to the party

That's why we're running as the Free DC Slate: to bring that same spirit to the Democratic State Committee.

We're a diverse group of Washingtonians from all eight wards, united by a single belief: our Democratic Party should be working as hard for DC as we work for it.

We're not interested in tickets to conventions. We're interested in organizing our neighbors, protecting our community, and making sure the Democratic Party earns the trust Washingtonians place in it.

Because DC deserves better.
