Will you do your part for 2020?
We are asking
20 members to support your Marion County Democrats Central Committee.
In order to support our Democratic candidates and keep the office available for the day when we can gather again, even if only in small groups we need to continue our
fundraising efforts.
Will you please make a
$20 monthly recurring gift today through our Democratic Victory Alliance (DVA)? Your support makes all the difference! If you are current DVA member giving less than $20 a month, please consider
upping your donation to meet this challenge!

Where Do We Go From Here?
by Melissa Fey, Secretary, MCDCC
On May 25th, over 1700 miles from Marion County, George Floyd lost his life at the hands of police brutality. Protests have erupted around the county in an unprecedented fashion. At our Capitol, we have seen over a week of protests including the March For Floyd last Saturday. It was a stunning turn out in the thousands, surely one of the biggest crowds our Capitol has ever seen. While the continued protests are doing their job to put pressure on government officials, there’s plenty more we can do to bring justice and equality to our communities. Changing hearts and minds is a purposeful action and doesn’t happen without effort.
Here is a list of things to read, listen to, donate to, act upon, or watch.
