Let’s have a strong WSD showing at the town hall. Then, let’s gather at a nearby restaurant/bar on Unser to chat about what we learned and to discuss our priorities for this session. Location of gathering TBD at end of town hall.

Let Us Hear From You

You and your fellow members are the engine that powers our organization. Please give some thought about ways you can add your unique talents to help supercharge our mission of keeping the west side blue and also defeating Trumpism. Then, let us know! Contact us by sending your thoughts to ideas@westsidedems.org or by joining the conversation at our monthly meetings beginning in January.

Thanks to those of you filled out a survey at our meeting on November 8 when you told us how you could contribute to our organization. You replied that you could help with social media, plan programs and social events, notify members of events through texting, setting up for events, and many other things. But the surveys were anonymous. We need to know who you are and what you would like to do, so please take a moment and communicate your ideas, questions and comments to ideas@westsidedems.org.

But wait. Did I mention that we’re having a big membership drive with a goal of having 200 paid members by February 16, Presidents’ Day? We love all of our newsletter subscribers but quite a few of you have not paid your $10 annual dues. We’re offering you amnesty. If you click here and renew your membership now, you are good to go for ALL of 2026. Plus you will continue to receive our newsletters and other benefits. Now, that’s a deal. We need your support. Thank you.

West Side Dems Immigration Info Hub

“If the rights of one person are denied, the rights of all of us are denied. This concept of mass deportation is very frightening. So West Side Dems will develop a hub of information about immigration and mass deportation.”
