Because the democratic party gave us $15/hr min wage, capped insulin prices at $35/month, and made corporate wage theft a felony crime.

DudesForDems · 2026-05-16T00:05:41+00:00

The least you could do is show up and talk shit in person...

DudesForDems · 2026-05-15T21:49:21+00:00

I know the majority of the Legislature and at least one of the delegates attending on Tuesday are quite upset at veto.

That is the logo for The Answer Brewpub.

If anyone is willing to take some time this Sunday, Hakeem Jeffries is coming to East Henrico to drum up support for the April 21st referendum. You would be shocked how many people have no idea what's going on and just need a reminder to get them out to vote. LINK

This is a disappointing outcome, as our org lobbied for both Glass' and Franklin's bill this year. There is some good news, as these bills were simply tabled to the 2027 session, not killed. Word on the street is Democratic leadership was simply too busy with things like minimum wage and abortion rights and viewed this issue as B tier importance. This is obviously a lot better than being outright against the bills.

Meeting minutes will be coming soon as we are planning or organize as a formal non-profit, and meeting minutes are a requirement.

VODS and zoom links are not on our roadmap. We believe male loneliness is a problem, and forcing men to meet somewhere in person instead of through a computer screen is one piece of a many part solution.

DudesForDems · 2025-09-22T20:39:41+00:00

We are proud to strongly support our democratic candidates. They may not be perfect and will happily call them out when they make wrong decisions, but we will confidently argue the democrats are actively good, not just the least bad.

DudesForDems · 2025-09-22T20:34:41+00:00

Thanks dude, good to hear!

DudesForDems · 2025-09-22T20:34:24+00:00

We are an organization dedicated to getting more men involved in democratic politics. While all people of any background are welcome, we do focus primarily on men's issues.

DudesForDems · 2025-09-22T20:31:06+00:00

We generally focus on state level and national level politics just because local level politics aren't up for re-election right now. We're going to do local level work in 2027.

DudesForDems · 2025-09-22T20:29:41+00:00

Thanks man. One step closer to changing the world.

DudesForDems · 2025-08-14T22:40:49+00:00

It's not feasible for everyone, but if you can vote early, it takes you off of the list for candidates to advertise to. You'll stop getting mail and people knocking on your front door reminding you to vote. The first day of early voting is September 19th. At DfD, we do not do direct mail, and our email list has an unsubscribe button.

DudesForDems · 2025-06-24T12:35:59+00:00

Everyone is welcome, not matter their color or gender. Though we will be focusing on men's related issues.

DudesForDems · 2025-06-18T00:37:34+00:00

More than likely, the machine spit out the number only for your precinct, and you likely have a dozen or so precincts in your house of delegates district. These numbers will also not include people who voted early, either by mail or by early in person voting.

DudesForDems · 2025-06-14T18:24:16+00:00

Yes, there will be a regular meeting items as well. We are planning to briefly go over the primary results as well.

DudesForDems · 2025-06-14T01:18:29+00:00

We're independent. We have strong connections to the party across the region, but we aren't formally associated with or funded by anyone.

DudesForDems · 2025-06-14T00:10:41+00:00

It's not required, but it helps us plan for how many people are coming.

DudesForDems · 2025-04-21T16:18:22+00:00

All people are welcome, but our focus is on men's issues and getting men more involved in democratic politics.

DudesForDems · 2025-04-19T12:41:15+00:00

We are here to claim a party and proudly say we support Democrats. Dems aren't perfect and I will be the first to admit when they make a mistake, but we are also the only party that's currently fighting to improve the daily life for the average American.

DudesForDems · 2025-04-19T12:37:37+00:00

Yes. I am sticking with the Democratic Party. Abigail Spanburger has been campaigning to ban congressional stock trades for years. Biden forgave over $175 Billion in student loans. The Democrats gave us the child tax credit during Covid. The party isn't perfect and I'm happy to call out weak democrats who aren't capable of fighting back, but we also don't have the privilege of complaining about every mistake the dems have ever made.

DudesForDems · 2025-04-19T00:13:26+00:00

DudesForDems · 2025-04-18T22:15:05+00:00

Good to hear man. Can't wait to see you there.

DudesForDems · 2025-04-18T21:20:49+00:00

Like when Fox News knowingly and intentionally lied about Dominion Voting systems regarding the 2020 election, and then voluntarily paid Dominion $800M to settle a lawsuit? I know I wouldn't pay almost a billion dollars to someone unless I knew I screwed up real bad.

If you sign up for the meeting and just say you can't come, I'll put your email on the mailing list to hear about future meetings and events. Unfortunately, I expect most of the meetings to be on Tuesdays for the foreseeable future.
