support dems who support us
1st Ward Dems welcomes candidates for public office to share how they plan to center the needs of our community if elected. We support candidates who support us — by helping circulate nominating petitions, organizing events and fundraisers, and serving as a sounding board for their policy ideas.
connect with elected officials
Committeewoman Laura Yepez serves as a vital liaison between the 1st Ward and our elected officials at every level of government. When residents have concerns about city, county, state, or federal issues, Laura brings those voices directly to the people in power — and often brings those officials into the ward to hear from us firsthand and report on the work they’re doing that impacts our daily lives.
foster community
1st Ward Dems works to connect neighbors with each other and with the vibrant ecosystem of local businesses, public spaces, dining spots, creative hubs, and neighborhood initiatives — building a more connected, supportive ward for current and future residents.
advocate for our neighborhood
Whether it’s getting alleys repaved, adding speed bumps, protecting our undocumented neighbors, or pushing for resources at the city, state, or federal level, 1st Ward Dems is a powerhouse of collective advocacy. We work to ensure that the needs of our ward — big or small — are heard and addressed.
