Welcome to the official website of the Columbia County Democratic Party of Georgia!
Our major goals are to enhance public education, provide universal health care, and maintain public safety. We believe in women's choice, affirmative action, LGBTQ+ rights, immigrant rights, increased minimum wage, freedom to read, recognition of unions as an important aid to labor, campaign finance reform, and environmental protection. We oppose privatization of Social Security, and the Postal Service. We oppose all cuts to social services that hurt the poor, disabled, and elderly.
And with your help, we're going to run Democrats locally.
We're on Facebook (and Bluesky)

A CAUSE YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT- AND A BLOG BRINGING YOU THE TRUTH
If you don't already know about the county library's decision to reshelve books based on arbitrary, puritanical standards, you should go to our Treasurer's website, The Columbia County Observer. Karin's been watching their doings like a hawk. If you want to get involved in the movement to stop it, send her a message there! Or come on by a meeting and talk to her.
