We as Democrats can no longer sit idly by while the leaders of our party have a proven track record of failure and loss.
Why is this important?
As the Democratic National Committee has been responsible for organizing the campaigns of Democratic politicians seeking public office to advance the interests of the people and members of the Democratic Party, and as the DNC has utterly and completely failed in this responsibility such that Republicans now control;
1) The Presidency,
2) Both Houses of Congress,
3) At least 33 of 50 State Governorships,
4) 69 of 99 State Legislatures, and
5) are now empowered to fill the vacant seat on the Supreme Court after historic obstructionism of a sitting President.
Due to these myriad failures it has become clear to the members of the Democratic Party that our leadership is either unable or unwilling to effectively carry out their responsibility in advancing our Party Platform, and has therefore failed in its obligation to Democrats and Progressives nationwide.
We are therefore resolved and obliged as Progressives, and as members of the Democratic Party to have those responsible for this pattern of consistent defeat and failure removed from their positions immediately.
We are further resolved to see Keith Ellison elected as National Chair of the DNC, as well as any other officials who are both representative of and committed to the strong progressive principles, the elimination of the corrupting influence of money in politics, and strengthening the ideals espoused by the 2016 Democratic Party Platform.
