A Message from the Chair

Dear Fellow Kalamazoo County Democrats,
As we approach the upcoming 2023 and 2024 elections, I wanted to take a moment to remind us of the values that bind us together as Democrats and citizens. Our commitment to democracy, solidarity, and equity is the driving force behind everything we do. These values aren't just words on paper — they are the cornerstones of our vision for a better future. But to turn this vision into reality, we need every one of you to be an active participant in our democratic process. So I'm going to ask you to take on some critical things to help our communities:

Vote Like Your Future Depends on It
Voting is the bedrock of our democracy. It's how we exercise our right to have a say in the direction of our country, state, county, city, or party. I encourage each and every one of you to cast your vote when the time comes. Your vote is your voice, and it matters more than ever.

Run for Office — Be the Change You Seek
Have you ever considered running for office? Your unique perspective and passion can make a real difference in our community. Whether it's for city council, school board, township trustee, Congress or any other position, running for office is an empowering way to effect change at the grassroots level. We need dedicated leaders like you to step up and be a part of the solution, working to ensure everyone in Kalamazoo County gets a fair shot.

Support Candidates Who Share Our Values
Even if running for office isn't your path, you can still be a driving force for change by supporting candidates who align with our values. Volunteer your time, donate to campaigns, and spread the word about candidates who will fight for democracy, solidarity, and equity. Together, we can amplify our impact.

Join the Movement
Our movement is about more than just elections; it's about creating a better future for everyone in Kalamazoo County. It's about fighting for a fair and just society where everyone has an equal shot at success. When you become a member of the KCDP, or renew your membership, you help us build that movement and connect with the people in your life. An easy way to do this is to simply set up a recurring contribution on our membership form.

Let's build a community where everyone's voice is heard, everyone's rights are protected, and everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

Thank you for your unwavering commitment to our values and our shared vision. Let's keep moving forward, together.

In Solidarity,
Justin Mendoza, KCDP Chair
