https://www.stuorg.iastate.edu/site/isudems/join The founding documents of the United States lay out a set of objectives for the American government. One of those is to “provide for the public welfare” and we take this to mean that all Americans should be equipped with the resources and skills required to succeed and pursue fulfilling lives. Understanding tha

t this nation is made up of many diverse groups, some less prosperous than others, we assert that government has a responsibility to assist those in need. Citizens pay taxes for p***c services, to maintain public property, and to fund programs aimed at assisting the disadvantaged among us. A responsibility towards one another motivates this system. As Democrats, we believe in a government whose functions include aiding the poor, the homeless, the displaced, the oppressed, and all others who just need someone to lift them up onto their feet. Justice and equality are principles we stand by, and our vision is inclusive. A plural society of interdependence and security can be achieved, and we intend to make it happen. http://www.democrats.org/

Just an FYI for anyone who is feeling frustrated with Iowa's new enforcement of the 2023 abortion ban.

Check out some of the resources we've gathered, or feel free to reach out, and we will try our best to find ways you can get involved!

Please see the statement drafted by our Vice President Ethan Kraulos on the Iowa Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the legal injunction of the abortion ban passed in the 2023 special legislative session.

The road ahead will not be easy but Iowans must fight back against the state government that is not following the views of its citizens.

Together we can make a change. Together we must let those in power know that they have gone too far.
