Occupy Democrats

Founded in late 2012, Occupy Democrats is a political organization and news website that provides a new counterbalance to the Republican Tea Party. The Occupy Movement changed the national conversation around the issue of class and inequality, but unlike the Tea Party, it failed to achieve legislative victories. Our aim is to create a more equal so... ciety for all by working with progressives, President Obama & the Democratic Party! Our mission is to Occupy Democrats on November 2016 AND BEYOND by voting in a LANDSLIDE of progressive Democratic candidates! While the right-wing Tea Party has an entire caucus in Congress ruthlessly pursuing its extreme agenda, the Occupy movement has yet to produce even a single congressperson. Occupy Democrats is a new and growing MOVEMENT dedicated to changing that! Let's give the Tea Party the boot - for good! - by electing a slate of newly-energized progressives to Congress. Working through the democratic process, We The People will rise up to give President Obama and other progressive Democrats a Congress that will work with them to grow the economy, create jobs, promote fairness and fight inequality, and get money OUT of politics! Occupying Wall Street in 2011 was only the beginning.Read More
