Who We Are

Brooklyn Democrats for Change is a local Democratic political club dedicated to:

  keeping jobs from being outsourced

  protecting Social Security

  building and maintaining affordable health care for all New Yorkers

  preserving our cherished American freedoms

  making progressive reforms in City Hall, Albany and the local Democratic Party

  bringing our troops home from an unnecessary war in Iraq

  saving the environment and the dangers of global warning

  reducing and one day eliminating our country's huge national debt

  keeping down the rising costs of gas and oil

  sponsoring REAL improvements in our National Security

  How We Began
Founded in 2004, Brooklyn Democrats for Change is a group of Independent minded individuals dedicated to supporting the election of forward thinking candidates to public office.

We are committed to the ideal of bringing to the public's attention issues to meet and address the many concerns facing residents. In the past we have had speakers on many issues including getting rid of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge toll, Ferry Service for Bay Ridge and Sunset Park, The Gowanus Expressway, optical scans voting machines for New Yorkers that have a paper trail and ending the war in Iraq.

  What We Do
We sponsor public forums, candidates' nights, film evenings, speakers on civic and social topics, and other events to raise the public's awareness and commitment to action through the political arena.

All the funds we collect go to running our meetings, not into anyone's pockets. Make a difference, and join us. We are a democratic Democratic Club, and our members get to make all important decisions.

  Whom We Serve
As a local political club, BDFC focuses primarily on the communities of Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, Dyker Heights, Fort Hamilton, Bath Beach, Gravesend, and immediately adjacent communities. We welcome all interested parties to join us without regard to race, color, creed, sexual orientation or party affiliation.

Hope to see you at our next meeting!
