The Brooklyn Democratic Party should be a body where the diverse communities of Brooklyn can come together to articulate and achieve common goals and shape a political culture that is accessible to all and rewards accountability and transparency. 

The Brooklyn Democratic Party should: 

• Create meaningful, formal opportunities for County Committee members to participate in party business, including proposing and voting on rules changes and resolutions;

• Use its resources and organizing power to improve democratic processes in Brooklyn (e.g. increase voter registration and turnout, promote an accountable and well functioning Board of Elections, create an infrastructure for active Assembly District Committees borough-wide);

• Develop avenues for populations traditionally excluded from the political process to gain representation;

• Implement greater transparency and voter involvement in judicial nominating process;

• Substantially support (fundraising, volunteers, boots on the ground) Democrats in local general election races, particularly those candidates running in swing districts in the County; and

• Identify policy needs, in collaboration with stakeholders, and develop Party policy platforms around local and national issues (e.g. non-citizen voting rights, education about ballot and constitutional measures, passing statewide resolutions).
