what we stand for . . .

---

As the local arm of the state Democratic Party, the 14th District Democratic Committee works to elect candidates who support the issues that are important in our community. We live where you live, work where you work and fight for the local issues you care about the most: 

We’re committed to aiding all residents of the 14th District, with a livable wage, affordable housing and day care, paid family and medical leave, and community resources for those in need. 

To improve our schools, we support increased funding for teachers and facilities, more apprenticeships and vocational tracks for high school students, and debt-free college.

Let’s create an economy that works for everyone, with good-paying jobs, a $15 minimum wage and comprehensive benefits to make a better life for all Delawareans.

As residents of ecologically sensitive beach communities, together we will work to protect the environment, ensure clean drinking water, reduce runoff and manage storm surges. 

Achieving universal health care will only happen if we fight for access to women’s health care, lower prescription drug prices, programs treating opioid addiction and services for children. 

If you’d liked to help address the challenges we face and create communities where everyone can thrive, the 14th District Democratic Committee is for you.

Meetings are held the second Wednesday of every month at 6:00 PM. In person at the Iron Hill Brewery 19815 Coastal Highway, Rehoboth Beach and via Zoom.

The 2020 election may be over, but for Delaware Democrats the work to inform, register and motivate voters continues.

With Democrats defending slim majorities in the U.S. Congress and dozens of seats up for grabs in the Delaware General Assembly, the 2022 campaign season has already begun. 

As a member of the 14th District Democratic Committee, you can help elect Democrats to local, state and national office. In 2020, we provided critical support to candidates by sending thousands of letters, raising thousands of dollars and participating in Get Out the Vote drives. 

Join us by emailing Committee Secretary Cheryl Fruchtman at DE14RDDems@gmail.com to express interest. 

Several other organizations that support Democrats are seeking volunteers in the next election cycle:

Vote Forward volunteers send handwritten letters to unregistered and low-propensity voters—particularly in battleground states—encouraging them to vote. In 2020, volunteers sent more than 20 million postcards, boosting voter turnout nationwide and in the Georgia runoffs. 

Rock the Vote is focused on building the youth vote with education and registration initiatives. Since its founding by music executives in 1990, the group has registered more than 12 million voters.

Environmental Voter Project identifies environmentalists and works to engage them in the political process. In 2020, the program targeted 1.8 million non-voters in 12 key states, and turned 607,000 into voters.
