The peaceful Anti-ICE demonstrations across the country are a sign that the people have had enough. Here in the Midwest, it’s freezing cold, but we’re protesting regardless because our democracy is more important.
Join us. Enough is enough.

Wisconsinites have made our support of abortion rights clear. Through the election of pro-choice candidates Susan Crawford and Janet Protasiewicz, we have a Court that protects women’s rights and their bodily autonomy.

America is facing an affordability crisis like we haven’t seen since 2020.
We’ve tried tariffs.
We’ve tried bombing Venezuela.
And we’ve tried calling it a “hoax”.
Now can we try addressing the issue?

Planned and spontaneous rallies and protests are happening in large and small communities all around us. Coming up in Eau Claire: Wed. Jan. 14, 3 pm, in front of Fed. Building, corner Barstow and Lake. And Tues. Jan 20, 3 pm front of Fed Building.

Keep ICE out of Eau Claire. The Valley will not stand by while masked police kidnap our neighbors. We strongly condemn the recent ICE presence in Eau Claire and ask the Valley to rally in support of our community and the families affected.

The Republicans that joined in funding the ACA recognize its effectiveness—healthcare is essential, and the ACA provides lifesaving care for millions of Americans.
This is a triumph of Democrat policy. Thank you, President Obama!

My Representative angrily posted this in the direct wake of the Minneapolis shooting—this statement is a disgusting misrepresentation of the tragedy. Apparently, DVO agrees, because he has now taken the post down.
But the internet is forever.

The news from Minneapolis today is heartbreaking—ICE is a masked, heavily-armed force that has now taken the life of an American citizen. The EC Dems condemn this horrible act, and our deepest sympathies go out to her family.

The Eau Claire Democrats are incredibly grateful for Tim Walz’s staunch advocacy of progressive values in Minnesota. With him as Governor, Minnesota has pioneered innovative programs to meet the needs of the community. We hope our next Governor is able to fight for a similar model here in Wisconsin.

Our New Years Resolution was to elect progressives across the state and country in 2026–we’re excited to make that Resolution a reality!
💙💙💙

We’ve fought hard to expand the resources we offer the community, and we’re so proud of what Eau Claire has been able to accomplish. We are a city that cares about its citizens, and we will continue to fight for the Valley to have better care.

The EC Dems are focused on affordability—we know America’s #1 problem right now is the sky-high price of groceries and rising healthcare costs. Meanwhile, Republicans are focused on ridiculous warmongering like this.
Vote for a party who knows what’s actually important.
January 5, 2026 at 11:21 AM
Bombing Venezuela doesn’t make groceries any cheaper, or healthcare any more accessible, or our rights any less under attack.
Republicans have forgotten what is most important to America.

There are three pathways to peace in Ukraine: a just peace through Russian defeat, an unjust peace through compromise, and genocidal occupation euphemistically called peace through Ukrainian surrender. Ukraine is working towards the first goal, Europe for the second, Trump for the third.

Banning books is authoritarian and immoral, period. The EC Dems oppose book bans in their entirety, they are a blatant violation of the first amendment and an insult to our Constitution.
The EC Dems support banning book bans.

A woman’s right to bodily autonomy is incredibly important—the EC Dems support the right of every woman to control their own body, and get an abortion if they chose.
Keep your politics out of women’s doctors offices.

The Eau Claire Democrats believe nobody is above the law. If the President is incriminated in anyway in the Epstein Files, he should face consequences.

The President is an elected official, not a King.

America is facing an affordability crisis under Trump. The Trump Tariffs have made Christmas more expensive than ever—Democrats are fighting to lower prices and raise America’s Holiday Spirit!

Eau Claire’s city busses are now fare-free for anyone under 18. Public transport connects our community—so we’re expanding accessibility to meet the needs of Eau Claire.

Feed My People Pop-Up Food Bank is coming back to Eau Claire! This holiday season, nobody should starve—all are welcome to these resources. Happy Holidays!🎄

The party calling queer people “groomers” seems to have redacted a lot of the files about groomers.
Coincidence?
December 23, 2025 at 3:08 PM
The Epstein Files have been “released”. Notice anything suspicious?
December 20, 2025 at 9:29 PM
The Trump administration claimed to support releasing the files, but now they say they won’t meet the deadline of the bill Trump signed.
Yet another unfulfilled promise.
