What the KCDP Fights For
Civil rights
The KCDP supports the local non-discrimination ordinances that are currently in place. We will always work to make Kalamazoo County a welcoming community for ALL people.
Lowering the cost of living
Working families are the backbone of our county. The KCDP supports pro-worker policies like raising the minimum wage, cutting taxes for the middle class, and growing business.
Public Safety
Our communities must be safe places to live and grow. The KCDP supports our Police, Fire, and EMS in their efforts to fight crime, help citizens, and keep Kalamazoo County beautiful!
Education
Teachers are heroes, and students deserve every opportunity towards success. The KCDP will always support more funding for schools, modernizing educational techniques, and making education more affordable.
Environmental Protection
We are the freshwater state, but that is never a guarantee. It takes action from all people to keep our county green. The KCDP supports forest preservation, clean air standards, and investments in renewable energy.
Democracy
Democracy is the most magnificent part about the United States. The KCDP supports making it easier to vote and will only get behind candidates that respect the outcomes of elections, no matter who wins.
These are 6 of our priorities. You can find more on the Michigan Democratic Party Platform.
