The EC Dems strongly support the Jewish community—we’re fighting for a world where everyone, regardless of their religion, gender, race, sex, or orientation, can be respected and included in their communities. We condemn the terrorist attacks in Australia, and the antisemitism motivating them.

Join us at the Lazy Monk every 1st & 3rd Tuesday! Eau Claire is a haven of good beer and good people, and we’ll have both!

The Trump administration is defending bullying and harassment—while Democrats are fighting to keep ALL of our children, including trans kids, safe and accepted in their environment.

The Eau Claire Democrats are incredibly grateful for Emily Berge’s leadership as City Council President. From fighting a pandemic and hospital closures to protecting our city’s environment and natural beauty, you have fought for what is most important to this city—and for that we are thankful.

Keeping the Valley affordable is a top priority of the Eau Claire Dems. As Trump’s tariffs cause prices to skyrocket, we’re fighting to support our local businesses and farmers—are you with us?

Feed My People’s pop-up food pantry is in town today!

DVO would rather take a punch than have a public town hall. Interesting🤔

Nobody in the Valley deserves to be targeted and marginalized—and we’re fighting to make that happen. The Eau Claire Dems are welcoming of ALL people, and we hope Rep. Derrick Van Orden learns a thing or two from us!

Immigrants are our strength, our neighbors, and our friends. We’re fighting for empathetic leadership that will represent ALL of the Valley. We believe that isn’t Derrick Van Orden. Join us in fighting for a Rep who will treat the immigrants of our Valley with respect.

Throw that word at the father of a disabled kid and you better run.

Periodic reminder that Congress could stop this administration TODAY if they wanted to, and yet they don’t.

Small businesses form the beating heart of Eau Claire—from Ramone’s Ice cream to Shift Cyclery to Mr. Kitty’s Cat Café, the Valley is defined by the small businesses it hosts. This holiday season, be sure to stop by and support your community!

Instead of making good on his campaign promises, Trump is focusing on persecuting his political opponents. How does bringing Joe Biden to Court lower grocery prices? How does this address the homelessness crisis?

The Trump administration has become defined by the hateful rhetoric they spew. As Republicans continue to crusade against our freedoms, Democrats are fighting for ALL of us.

The EPA just approved new "forever chemical" pesticides for use on food like lettuce, broccoli, and potatoes. They're creating new pathways for long lasting & potentially harmful PFAS to get into our food & environment. THIS is how they're going to Make America Healthy Again?

"[M]iddle-income households say they’re swapping out staples or downsizing their menus. The affordability crisis has literally reshaped what ends up on the table," writes @michaeljones.bsky.social for COURIER.

No “thank you for your service”, no respect of any kind. Is this how real Americans treat our veterans? Mark Kelly fought for our country, and you repay him with nitpicks and insults? Disgusting. We need representation that will stand up for our veterans.

Trump wrongly indicted me. I’ll rightly impeach him. Impeachment isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent — but is it working?

Vote for candidates who care about you—who fight for your rights, your healthcare, and your interests. The Eau Claire Democrats are fighting for all of this and more—we hope you’ll join us!

Focusing on affordability is crucial to improving the quality of life of our constituents—the EC Dems know this, and our candidates are working hard to lowers costs across the Valley. Join us, and vote for policy that Americans can afford.

We believe in inclusive, empathetic leadership that leaves no voice left behind, no one excluded. We believe racism, sexism, and transphobia have no place in the Valley—and we’re fighting for a community that everyone can be part of. Join us in fighting for a more empathetic democracy.

Our candidates are getting out into the community and meeting people where they’re at—because the Eau Claire Dems are fighting for accountable, approachable, transparent leadership.

The Third District stretches far beyond the Valley, so our candidates are hitting the road to make sure they hear from constituents all across the District. No voice left unheard!

Today, the House voted to release the Epstein Files and bring justice to the many victims Epstein left behind. We hope that the Senate will join the House in bringing a decisive end to one of America’s darkest periods, and prove that nobody, even the rich and powerful, is above the law.

Happy Veterans Day from the Eau Claire Democrats!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Looking to get engaged in our upcoming Primary Election? Visit 3rd & Vine December 10th to meet Eau Claire’s City Council President, and one of our candidates for Congress, Emily Berge!

We are overjoyed to hear that Governor Tony Evers has announced all SNAP benefits must be paid in full in the state of Wisconsin. Despite Trump and DVO’s best efforts, these benefits will be restored to the Valley, and families will no longer go hungry.

Trump doesn't care

We’re hosting a food drive! We ask the community to bring non-perishable donations to our resource center (440 Browdway St, Eau Claire) November 1st-13th. We also have a donation container for cash or checks made out to Feed My People Food Bank or St. Francis Food Pantry!

Happy Birthday, Governor Tony Evers! Thank you for eight productive years of service to your state—thanks to you, Wisconsin has better roads, schools, you name it. We could not be more proud of our Governor!

An Updated (Nov. 5th) Guide to WI’s Third Congressional District race: Primary Election Day: 8/11/26 General Election Day: 11/3/26 Incumbent: Derrick Van Orden (R) @therealdvo.bsky.social Challengers: Emily Berge (D) @bergeforcongress.com Rebecca Cooke (D) @rebeccaforwi.bsky.social

Healthcare is a key issue in the Valley—our candidates know that, and are fighting for lower costs and better accessibly across the District. The EC Dems are with the Valley in this fight.

Yesterday, Democrats took victories in nearly every race across the county—a stunning victory emblemic of our resistance to the Trump administration. Well done, everyone!

Sen. Jeff Smith, Rep. Jodi Emerson, and Ethan Reed of Opportunity Wisconsin and many community members assembled Thursday at the Community Table to urge Congress to continue to support the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) which assists 690,000 food share recipients in Wisconsin.

Our candidates are active in this fight—they’re on the ground, volunteering like the rest of us. We’re fighting for people-focused, transparent leadership—join us today!

WI’s 3rd District stretches beyond the Valley—our candidates are campaigning all across the district on a mission to reach every voter possible. We want every voice to be heard in this race—that’s what we, and our candidates, are fighting for.

Eau Claire has long been defined by our progressive values and our accepting community. This is why we are so disappointed to hear the UWEC College Republicans stage a “mock ICE arrest”, complete with racist costumes, at a Halloween Party. The Valley is better than this.

As November approaches, it’s important to remember that there are food pantries across the Valley that can help those effected by Republican’s shutdown. The EC Dems will do everything in our power to support the community through these difficult times.

We are proud of our candidates for the efforts they’ve put in to resist this autocratic administration—it is not threatening to voice our disagreement with Rep. Van Orden.

Rep. Derrick Van Orden claims the protesters at No Kings were paid. Take it from us, DVO: we didn’t have to pay ANYONE in the Valley to oppose you, their anger is free.

While Rep. Van Orden continues to claim everyone who disagrees with him is paid to do so, the EC Dems have been getting out in the community and fighting for what we believe in-unpaid. We hope you’ll join us.

Tell Congress to do their damn jobs for once:

The release of the hostages marks an enormous moment of celebration for much of the world—the horrors in Gaza are ending, the hostages are returning home and the violence is over. This is a remarkable achievement for the people of Palestine AND Israel, and we hope the peace is lasting.

As our candidates continue to hold in-person, public events across the District, DVO is nowhere to be found. Transparency is key to representing your constituents—the EC Dems know that, and we’re fighting for representation the Valley deserves.

As Republicans wage a ‘war on Weight’, ‘war on Woke’ and a ‘war on Christmas’, the EC Dems are focused on REAL issues—solving the homelessness crisis, reopening the Valley’s hospitals and lowering our cost of living.

The history of America didn’t start with the Mayflower—long before the pilgrims arrived, Native Americans called these lands home. Today is an important opportunity to honor the history, culture, and unique identity of the Indigenous people of America.

Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day from the Eau Claire Democrats! Today we’re recognize the myriad of contributions the Native American people have made to our country, and honor their long and storied connection to these lands.

We need representation that will fight for EVERYONE in the Valley—including homeless veterans and queer people on welfare. Derrick Van Orden took an oath to serve the Valley—it’s time to elect someone who will take that oath seriously.
