SWMO DFA

Southwest Missouri Democracy for America

About Me

Profile modified by: The CricketSoda Myspace Profile Editor Our purpose is to restore citizen's ownership of our democracy by mobilizing grassroots participation in the political process. SWMO DFA supports candidates and issues through a combination of education, fundraising, community organizing, and direct action at the national, state, and local levels. We work to ensure that elected officials are held accountable to the electorate.
DFA fights against the influence of the far right-wing and their radical, divisive policies and the selfish special interests that for too long have dominated our politics.

My Interests

SWMO Democracy for America is a PROGRESSIVE organization and not affiliated with any political party.

I'd like to meet:



People who want to get involved and change our society from the ground up.



Our last issue involved Springfield's first ever Rock the Vote "Save the Music" effort to fight the unnecessary Bar Ban used to exploit our youth. Although the ban passed, a record number of youth came to the polls and are now registered to vote. Young adults will not be exploited again.
Currently, on the local level, we're committed to ensure people of integrity are elected to City Council. People who will not support anymore unnecessary legislation, and committed to the proper development of Downtown Springfield.
