Dem party platform released: Kamala will finish the great job Joe began




Check out the 2024 Democratic 2024 party platform draft, outlining historic record and bold agenda for President Biden, and for President-elect Harris to finish the job! (The platform was actually completed in July, before the President turnover the reins to Kamala)


“This Platform highlights the progress that we’ve made since day one of the Biden-Harris Administration and recommits Democrats up and down the ballot to our mission to give every American a fair shot,” said DNC Chair Jaime Harrison.

“While Donald Trump and the RNC crafted an extreme MAGA Platform behind closed doors, we know that their real blueprint for a second Trump term is their toxic and dangerous Project 2025 wishlist to rip away Americans’ freedoms, give handouts to billionaires on the backs of working people, and clear the path for Trump to be a dictator on ‘day one.’


“The contrast couldn’t be clearer. Our Drafting Committee incorporated a diverse set of expertise and perspectives, inviting Democrats from across the nation to participate in our process and contribute to our Platform. The breadth and depth of this Platform is rooted in our collective experience and reflects a bold agenda that affirms Democrats’ commitment to protecting fundamental freedoms.”


The Democratic Party Platform was drafted with input from individuals and organizations from across the United States through the 2024 Platform Written Testimony Portal, listening sessions, and Drafting Committee hearing testimony.


The Democratic Party’s Platform and process stand in stark contrast to Donald Trump’s RNC Platform, which was created behind closed doors and closed off entirely to the public and the press. Donald Trump placed the architects of Project 2025 at the helm of the RNC Platform Committee to help him implement his extreme agenda to institute a national abortion ban, give handouts to his billionaire donors on the backs of middle-class Americans, make cuts to Medicare and Social Security, and ensure he can be a dictator on “day one.” 


Highlights of the DNC Platform 

In the past four years, Democrats have proven once again that democracy can deliver, and we have made tremendous progress. We’ve created nearly 16 million jobs, prescription drug prices are coming down, and we’re taking the most ambitious action in world history to fight climate change. We’re seizing record amounts of fentanyl and securing our border in the face of Republican inaction, and strengthening NATO and restoring American leadership in the world. We’ve worked to close the persistent racial wealth gap that has plagued our country for generations, with Black wealth climbing 60 percent since before the pandemic and Latino household wealth increasing by 19 percent in the last three years. We are still in a battle for the soul of our nation, and President Biden, Vice President Harris, and Democrats are running to finish the job.


Where the Democratic Platform fights to advance this bold agenda, Donald Trump and Project 2025 are planning to strip away Americans’ freedoms and dismantle our democracy. The contrast could not be more stark.
