Event Description:

Resulting from a Resolution passed at the PPC Steering Committee meeting in January 2006, the TDP will begin offering hearings around the State in April and May allowing Democrats in each region to give public testimony as to what planks they would like to see in the Party Platform. This resolution was endorsed by the Party Chair Soechting, the Grassroots Committee of the SDEC, and Party Chair Candidate Boyd Ritchie and is meant to encourage more citizen participation and also increase the visibility of the platform writing process for the TDP. Party officials are organizing the logistics.

Event Description:

This special workshop is for progressive delegates and alternates attending the Texas Democratic Party (TDP) state convention the following week.

This is being organized by members of the PAA, PPC, DFH, and other local progressive groups.  It is NOT for all delegates -- just for those wanting to help turn the TDP around in a positive direction, that focuses on electing progressive candidates who will talk about issues like election reform, the prison-industrial complex, improving public education, health care for all, regulation (such as for pollution, energy, and more) being controlled by the regulated, getting out of Iraq, impeachment, ending the assault on our civil liberties, and more.
