Activism

Clark County Democrats

Democrats in Clark County are focused not only on good, living wage jobs, but clean air and water, affordable health care, solid public education, livable communities, and a respect for individual rights that we cherish as our American birthright. Although the party has made progress in the last century to expand rights from the few to the many, we continue to stand together to increase equality in the workplace and in our personal lives. Whether your family is new to America or has deep roots, whether or not your family looks like the one next door, we invite you to help weave a stronger county, state, and nation where respect rather than fear is the fiber that holds us together.

Fuse Washington

Our goals at Fuse are to help progressives win more often and give ordinary people a strong voice in politics. We aim to provide organizing and communications power that helps progressives win today and tomorrow on critical issues and electoral campaigns, while strengthening the foundation for increased success over time.

Indivisible

Indivisible is a grassroots movement of thousands of local Indivisible groups with a mission to elect progressive leaders, rebuild our democracy, and defeat the Trump and MAGA agenda.

In January 2017, as we were still absorbing the shock of Trump’s election, one of our current leaders saw an article in The New York Times about an organization started by two former congressional staffers. They had just published The Indivisible Guide, a playbook for resisting the Trump agenda. We learned through the grapevine that other like-minded citizens had arranged to meet at a local pub and form a local chapter. So many people showed up that we had to improvise and move our meeting to a much larger space at a local church. And so we began.

Today, we work together with other local, progressive groups and Indivisible chapters across the state and in nearby Portland to defend our democracy.

Washington Indivisible Network (WIN)

The Washington Indivisible Network is a way for local chapters in Washington to pool resources and take action at the statewide level.

League of Women Voters of Clark County

The League of Women Voters of Clark County is part of a national organization that was formed more than 104 years ago and is not for women only! We are proudly nonpartisan and never align ourselves with candidates or parties. Instead, we promote knowledge of the political process, celebrate political participation by citizens across the political spectrum, and encourage the necessary democratic values of rule of law, civil discourse, and respect for truth as modeled by our process for developing policy positions.

The Lincoln Project

The Lincoln Project is dedicated to the preservation, protection, and defense of democracy. It is founded by former Republican strategists who understood the grave threat of Trumpism to our nation. The project team has expanded to include individuals from across the political spectrum.

LULAC - League of United Latin American Citizens of SW Washington

LULAC is growing in the Pacific Northwest, where the changing demographics call for grassroots organization to effectively address local, state, and regional issues. Through the power of organizing and collaborating, community leaders come together to continue the legacy of those before us who defined Latino history of this country.

MoveOn

Whether it’s supporting a candidate, passing legislation, or changing our culture, MoveOn members are committed to an inclusive and progressive future. We envision a world marked by equality, sustainability, justice, and love. And we mobilize together to achieve it.

Vancouver WA MoveOn

The Vancouver chapter consists of organized, community-minded people working together to influence national and local politics. Every voice and hour volunteered makes a difference in the cause.

NAACP Vancouver Washington

Whole Washington

Formed in November 2016, Whole Washington is a grassroots coalition of healthcare professionals and volunteers from all over Washington State. We organize and support efforts at both the national and state level. The ultimate goal is a national, single payer system, and we endorse Medicare for All.

Young Dems of Clark County

We engage, empower, and mobilize the voices of progressives under the age of 36 across Clark County. Our pillars are liberalism, equity, and politics that further the collective vision of our community. Finally, we secure the civic process for our generation and work to build up the next.

Climate Action

ACE - Action for the Climate Emergency

ACE educates, inspires and supports young people to lead the fight for their future. We ensure they have everything they need to understand the science and advocate for solutions to the climate emergency. We envision a world in which a global movement, rich in youth leadership, has turned the tide on climate change. We believe an equitable, biodiverse, carbon neutral future is still within reach if we, the people, compel our leaders to act.

LGBTQ+ Activism, Support and Sanctuary

PFLAG

PFLAG has been around for more than 50 years and was founded by Jeanne Manford, the mother of a gay son, Morty Manford, a prominent gay activist who was assaulted at the infamous Stonewall raid, a foundational event. PFLAG was originally called “Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbians and Gays,” and changed its name to PFLAG in 2014 to include all members of the LGBTQ+ community.

LGBTQ+ people are a scapegoat under attack by the Trump regime, and many are scared. The local PFLAG chapter is putting together a website that we will link. You can find out their contact information from this link at the national PFLAG site. You can also contact the local chapter at pflagvancouverwa@gmail.com.

We encourage allies of the LGBTQ+ community to wear a safety pin with colored beads, or a rainbow pin or badge or ribbon that shows that you are someone with whom they can feel safe.
