The Trempealeau County Democratic Party is
part of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin. The modern Democratic Party in
Wisconsin got its start in 1949, when the progressive wing of the state's
Republican Party broke away and joined Wisconsin's Democratic Party. Over
the next decade, Democrats, invigorated by the new blood brought into the
party by those progressives, racked up an impressive series of wins. This
included the election of the first Democratic Governor and U.S. Senator,
knocking out Joe McCarthy in doing so.
We support protection of the environment as envisioned by Gaylord Nelson.
The Trempealeau County Democratic Party has fought for
those same progressive principles-rallying against unjust wars, fighting
along with our labor and environmental allies on issues impacting workers'
rights and wages and our shared natural environment. In addition we
support public campaign finance reform, health care reform, support for
quality public education, funding of research and investment in alternative
forms of energy and support sustainable farming. We've taken a lead in the
Wisconsin Democratic Party to ensure openness for all party members in our
decision-making processes.
The Trempealeau County Democratic Party has
monthly meetings each month at the Alternative Ground Coffee House, Main
Street, Whitehall, at 7:00 pm. Dates of future meetings can be found
below.
We hope you'll join the
Democratic Party of Wisconsin and become active in the Trempealeau County
Democratic Party too!!
