The Lakeland Democratic Club
Why you should join the Lakeland Democratic Club:
-
The current administration is attempting to destroy our democracy—silencing unfavorable news reports, punishing politicians who disagree, defunding universities, and much more—every citizen should be concerned and be working to preserve our democratic way of life.
-
Use your voice to end the administration’s anti-science policies which are causing serious health problems around the country (resurgence of measles, lack of care for pregnancy complications, etc.) Their disregard for climate change will make our planet a more dangerous place to live.
-
Restore America to its previous leadership role in the world. Our current leadership has alienated most countries and has made the world more chaotic.
-
Learn about candidates and important issues.
You can help get Democrats elected and return us to a healthier and more tolerant time.
