Progressive Democrats of Illinois

Organizational meeting of Illinois Progressive Caucus in the Democratic Party.
Dear Fellow Progressives,

Many of us spent much time during the past year volunteering or supporting progressive candidates like Howard Dean and Dennis Kucinich. Now that the Democratic Party has set the platform and nominated John Kerry, many are left wondering how to focus their energy. Across the country, progressive organizations are springing up to help elect Progressive Democrats to local, state, and federal offices. Illinois will join the dozens of states that have already established Progressive Caucuses.

The Progressive Democrats of Illinois announce their very first steering committee meeting to be held on Saturday August 7, 2004, 5pm to 7pm at 14 West Downers Place, Suite 8 in Aurora, IL. This planning meeting will be a pot-luck dinner meeting. ALL ARE WELCOME, no matter what political experiences you may or may not have. All you need is a desire to transform the Democratic Party from the inside.

We will be establishing temporary goals and organization to take us through the November 2 election, after which we will revisit our mission. Please forward this message to anyone you would like to. Contact Andrew Chusid if you have any questions or to RSVP (no RSVP required): andrew (at) chusid.com or 309-838-0880.

Thank you,

Andrew Chusid, Co-Founder
The Progressive Democrats of Illinois
