DPLC Platform Convention

  • First United Methodist Church 1376 Olive St. Eugene, OR 97401 (map)

Join us for the DPLC Platform Convention and weigh in on the Party’s guiding document for the next two years.

The convention will develop the platform to recommend to the Central Committee. You can read our current platform here. The first two pages are the “planks” of the platform – general ideas that describe our values. Starting on page 3 are action items – more specific things that we want our elected officials, other public entities or officials, or activists to do. Below is an example from our current platform:

Support the rights of women and girls across the world, including the right to be free from sexual assault, and access to all reproductive services. Repeal the Hyde Amendment.

If there are items not in our current platform that you wish to include, please send to platform@dplc.org. You can also send suggested modifications or deletions. Items can be suggested at the convention, but earlier is better. Items relating to local issues that can be supported by most Democrats are especially encouraged, since we can have most effect on such issues.

Credentialing starts at 10:30 a.m. Please RSVP here so that we can plan for the correct number of people.
