Is it a "party" or a strategy session? Join your friendly, neighborhood Democrats and Progressives as we take a hard look at the year ahead. Thank you to State Rep. Mary Beth Canty and State Rep. Nicolle Grasse for joining us to let us know what we can do to help protect Illinois over the next four years. We will strategize over how to protect democracy here in our own towns, schools, and library districts. And, we'll enjoy each other's company! Local candidates are welcome to introduce themselves as they prepare to run in the spring 2025 elections. Bring a snack or drinks to share! Please sign up so we know how much food to order!

Thank you to Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi for his keynote address at our Oct. 10 annual fundraiser! And thank you to the incredibly generous donors who helped make GPAD's Blue Wave 2024 fundraiser a great success. Now, it's time to knock on doors, make phone calls, finish our postcards, and sign up to help during Early Voting. On to Victory!
