    Federated CRM System Between TDP & All County Parties

    Federated CRM System for County Parties

    • Similar to the Unions/Action Network, the TDP should create a Federated CRM system (i.e. mass email/activist database).
    • EX: You can create a system of databases that communicate with each other. When an Activist signs up with the state org with a 76550 area code, they’ll automatically be added to the Lampasas County Dems’ database. An activist can unsub from either the state or the local without unsub’ing from the other.

    Cost savings will be hard to calculate, given the various data sizes. It could be more, less, or equal to the amount saved with the federated website system.

    Most folks outside of the Party DO NOT DISTINGUISH the difference between the State or the County Parties. We know and recognize the difference. Most people do not.

    Because of this, all work a County Party does will reflect directly on the TDP and vice versa. The more resources a County Party can put into GOTV and less into overhead, the better for us all.

    We need to centralize better and automate certain processes while maintaining local control. Federated websites and CRM systems are a great way to boost long-term effectiveness & efficiency.

    We call upon the TDP to create a federated CRM system for all county parties so that resources can be better spent on GOTV and other matters.

    Add the Indigenous Peoples Caucus to the SDEC

    The Permanent Rules Committee passed this proposal and we now ask for the General Body to support it as well. 

    104 signatures

    We call for the Indigenous Peoples Caucus (IPC) to be added to the State Democratic Executive Committee (SDEC). The IPC represents those who have been historically persecuted and face a very unique set of contemporary issues. The Texas Democratic Party needs their voices in our decision making process, and it is only right to ensure the IPC has a seat at the table.

    Turn the TDP Chair into a Full-Time Position

    The Permanent Rules Committee passed this proposal and we now ask for the General Body to support it as well. 

    107 signatures

    The Chair of the Texas Democratic Party is an important position. It's a disservice to the Party that whoever holds that position cannot give it their all. Furthermore, by not compensating the Chair position, we inadvertently dissuade working class people from leading the Texas Democrats. As such, we call for the State Chair to become a full-time, paid position within the Texas Democratic Party.
