Hello Delaware Democrats,
My name is Evelyn Brady, and I am honored to serve as your new State Chair. Thank you for placing your trust in me to lead our party. If we haven’t met yet, I look forward to getting to know you and getting you involved!
I come to this role as a mom, former educator and union member, and a passionate advocate for voting and reproductive rights. It should come as no surprise that I am a proud Democrat.
Our party is committed to building from the ground up. In the weeks and months ahead, I’ll be in communities across our state listening, learning, and inviting you to join us in strengthening our Democratic Party. Together, we can ensure that our shared values are not only protected but also advanced for all Delawareans.
I’m excited for the work ahead, and I hope you’ll be a part of it.
In solidarity,
Evelyn Brady |
