Dear John

The Young Democrats of America, Voters of Tomorrow, and the DNC Youth Council want to remind you about an incredible opportunity to hear directly from candidates running for DNC Vice Chair At-Large!

Young voters are a driving force in shaping our democracy, but our voices remain underrepresented in the Democratic Party’s leadership. With no at-large DNC appointments currently held by individuals under 40, it’s clear that we have more work to do to elevate youth leadership.

That’s why this Vice Chair At-Large Candidate Forum is so important. It’s your chance to hear from candidates who’ve secured at least 40 signatures as they share their vision for the future of our party. This forum ensures young voters have a seat at the table, amplifying the voices that will shape our shared future.
DNC Vice Chair Youth Forum We are proud to host DNC Vice Chair candidates for a first-of-its-kind youth forum for Democratic Party Vice Chair candidates. Eastern & Southern Candidates: January 21st, 7 PM E.T. Western & Midwestern Candidates: January 22nd, 5:30 PM P.T. While candidates will be split by regions, both forums are intended to serve a national audience. Moderated by: Eve Levenson (Night 1) Former Harris-Walz National Youth Engagement Director Joshua Rush (Night 2) Former Young Democrats of America Communications Director Watch Live at YDA.org/Forum Logos at the bottom: Young Democrats of America Youth Council Voters of Tomorrow
