** This Month with IYD
------------------------------------------------------------

With temperatures dropping, the Young Democrats' work is heating up.


** The Return of Redistricting
------------------------------------------------------------

We all thought redistricting was dead, but Republicans are reviving their power grab ([link removed]) , so the fight goes on. It’s time to put the pressure back on:

1. Call your state legislators. Support for redistricting in the State Senate is still weak. Find their contact info here. ([link removed])
2. Tell voters to call their state legislators. There are several phone banks to get more Hoosiers to speak out and tell their legislators to oppose redistricting:
Tuesdays @ 6:30pm ET (Virtual with the Indiana Democratic Party) ([link removed])
Thursdays @ 5:00pm ET (In-Person with Congressman André Carson) ([link removed])
3. Attend protests and rallies. There are already rallies planned for next Monday. ([link removed])
4. Invest in young leaders. Young Democrats will push us forward to break the supermajority in 2026.

** Run for Precinct Chair & State Convention Delegate
------------------------------------------------------------

Filing for Precinct Chair and State Convention Delegate is coming up soon. Running for one (or both!) of these offices is a great way to get involved for the first time in the Democratic Party.

Precinct Chairs (PCs) are critical to our party’s success: they elect county party leadership, fill vacancies when a Democratic elected official cannot complete their term, and are the most local representative of the party in their community.

State Convention Delegates will attend the party’s state convention on Saturday, June 6, 2026 ([link removed]) and nominate the Democratic candidate for several statewide offices including Comptroller, Secretary of State, and Treasurer. Check out the state party’s next virtual training to learn more. ([link removed])

You can file when the filing period opens on January 7th. Filing closes at noon on February 6th. There are a few things to keep in mind:

1. File a CAN-37 with your County Clerk. You must complete a CAN-37 - Declaration of Candidacy for Precinct Committeeman or State Convention Delegate in 2026 ([link removed]) form. If you are running for both PC and Delegate, you must file a separate copy of this form for each office.
2. You must vote in Democratic primaries. Your most recent primary vote must have been in the Democratic primary, or you must get your County Chair’s signoff to run.
3. Your name will be on the 2026 primary ballot. If you win in the May 5, 2026 primary, congrats!

We’d love to see more Young Democrats represented in our party, so don’t miss this chance to engage!

** Support the Young Dems
------------------------------------------------------------

It is the mission of the Indiana Young Democrats to engage young people in the Democratic Party and elect Young Democrats to public office.

But building the future of Democratic politics in Indiana is no small task. It takes resources to organize new chapters, empower young candidates, and ensure people know that the Democratic Party is here to support their families’ needs.

Consider supporting the Young Dems as we strive to advance this mission and build an Indiana we can all be proud of. ([link removed])
