Following a vote by its members on August 12, the Democratic Party of Dane County endorses Dane County board resolution RES-145 and supports its immediate passage.

“We expect our county elected officials to pass resolution 2020 RES-145 and we expect all elected officials to support comprehensive justice reforms, including but not limited to the stated reforms included within the 2020 RES-145.”

The Democratic Party of Dane County holds itself and its members accountable to uphold Black lives mattering in our community. We recognize that the current system and processes perpetuate systemic racism. We commit to addressing the structural changes required in Dane County to eliminate racial disparities.
