What Fundamental FREEDOMS Do We Support?

The SaddleBrooke Democratic Club (SBDC) is an organization within our 55+ community below Southern Arizona’s beautiful Santa Catalina Mountain range just outside of Tucson.
Our organization is open to anyone who supports the fundamental freedoms due to all Arizona residents. We strive to educate voters and elect candidates who stand up for freedom through our monthly meetings, bi-annual social events, and ongoing activities.
Welcome to the SaddleBrooke, Arizona Democratic Club

We had a great turnout for our May club meeting! We had a virtual Zoom event with James Goodwin, a speaker from the Center for Progressive Reform. He has been monitoring the Trump regime’s progress in implementing Project 2025’s comprehensive policy blueprint. This link explains it all.

The Trump Administration issued a new policy that would make it easy to fire hundreds of thousands of federal employees and replace them with political loyalists. This would make it easier to purge the government of the people and services that hold corporations accountable, protect labor rights, ensure clean air and water, provide healthcare and Social Security benefits, and enforce the safety regulations that took Americans out of the Gilded Age. We can stop them 🫵 You can help 🔥 Use this guide to submit a comment by May 23 - Next Week!

You read it here! Is Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker running for president? Many hope so. The fiery governor of spoke in (where else?) Manchester, New Hampshire this weekend.,,, He said, “Never before in my life have I called for mass protests, for mobilization, for disruption, but I am now. These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace.”.... In the fight over the future of the Democratic Party, Mr. Pritzker has emerged as a leader of an insurgent faction calling for a full-throated, unflinching barrage of attacks on Mr. Trump, his Republican allies and their right-wing agenda.... Mr. Pritzker wears a triple crown in Democratic politics, simultaneously one of the party’s most prominent elected officials, most generous donors and most talked about 2028 presidential prospects....
