The new year begins with more progressives in Congress than ever before. Democrats added four more trifectas (governor and legislative chambers), increasing the number to 17 states. While the divided federal government is frustrating, the prospects are strong for progress via executive order, federal agency action, as well as state legislation and local initiatives. DA elections around the globe offer opportunities to bring progressive voices to DA organizing and DA’s global decision body, the DPCA. The DA Annual General Meeting offers opportunities via resolution and bylaws too. Please complete this anonymous survey today to help set our proDA course of action. It should only take a few minutes -- and your feedback will be key in shaping our work this year and beyond.
