Many rock solid progressive democrats are frustrated with the current state of affairs in the Rockland County Democratic Party and in the Rockland and Town Committees. They don’t feel that the party is an effective organization that holds elected officials accountable to progressive principles. We wish to work for change in local Democratic politics, uphold Progressive principles, and give the party back to the people through this grassroots movement. We want to keep the Obama spirit alive and bring it to the Rockland Democratic Party. Join us as we begin to change Rockland County politics.
