DMO Statement On The White Supremacist Attack in Buffalo
Contact: Nils Robbins
Tel: 202-770-8053

DMO STATEMENT ON THE WHITE SUPREMACIST ATTACK IN BUFFALO
Once again a Black community has been subjected to mass violence at the hands of a white supremacist. On Saturday, a white gunman drove several hours to Buffalo, NY, specifically targeting a supermarket that serves Black Americans. There are at least ten reported victims of his attack, including a security guard who attempted to stop the assailant.
More disturbing than the violence itself is what motivated the man to go hunting for Black lives. His manifesto espouses a belief in a white supremacist conspiracy called the “Great Replacement Theory”. This fear that white birth rates are falling behind those of people of color can be found not only in the shooter’s manifesto, but on Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight”. Carlson personally supported Great Replacement Theory as a tactic Democrats are using to gain political control of the country. The shooter also targeted Jewish people in his manifesto, citing them as the source of “critical race theory”, another Fox News bogeyman widely broadcast on the network.
While hate speech is protected by the Constitution, incitement to violence is not. When gunmen draw clear lines between their attacks and the words of right-wing media personalities, it is time to hold the broadcasters accountable. DMO also calls on the Biden Administration to reinvigorate funding, resources, and interdepartmental coordination on efforts to identify and stop white supremacist violence before it can happen.

Barbara Jordan Named Blue Star Candidate
Jordan Named DMO Blue Star Candidate
The Board of Directors of Democratic Municipal Officials (DMO) has named Barbara Jordan a Blue Star Candidate as she campaigns for Mayor of Rio Rancho, New Mexico.
Blue Star Candidates
The DMO serves to connect, engage, and empower elected officials who identify as Democrats. Democratic Municipal Officials initiated the Blue Star Candidate program to support promising Democrats who stand to retake a mayor’s office, flip a council majority blue, or break new grounds with their election. These candidates have been vetted and recommended by the DMO Board of Directors.
Why Barbara Jordan?
Jordan is a combat veteran, having served over 20 years in the United States Air Force. Her current work highlights systems of social injustice in New Mexico and abroad. She is a Court Appointed Special Advocate, and a graduate of Emerge New Mexico.
Her race for mayor is a campaign to bring new perspectives and energy to municipal office in New Mexico. Jordan’s personal history informs her work championing equity, inclusion, and mental health services, particularly for children. She will serve as a strong advocate for the disabled, LGBT, and BIPOC communities. Jordan’s infrastructure goals include repairing the city’s roadways and protecting essential groundwater from radioactive waste dumping.
DMO President and Philadelphia At-Large Councilmember Derek Green remarked, “Barbara Jordan has shown a commitment to this country with over 20 years of service in the Air Force and continued her commitment to the community by founding People Requiring Equality Systemic Systems (PRESS). Barbara’s campaign is about her experience of not feeling heard by city leaders and taking action to ensure all in the city feel heard in the future. I see the same excitement, energy, and commitment to serving people that many DMO members around the country in both rural cities and metropolitan areas have every day. I am thrilled to announce DMO’s endorsement of Barbara Jordan for Mayor Rio Rancho and look forward to working together in the future.”
DMO Political Director Alejandro Chavez, grandson of labor leader Cesar Chavez added, “My grandfather would say, ‘It’s never about the grapes or lettuce but always about the people.’ I see that in Barbara’s campaign and believe she will be the peoples’ mayor.”
Upon hearing the news of her Blue Star Candidate certification, Jordan said, “Being endorsed by DMO solidifies the work that I am doing for our community and my city. It is a clear signal that I am fighting for all people and for humanity itself. I know that with DMO by my side, we can do this.”
Why Does This Race Matter?
If elected, Barbara Jordan will not only become the first Black women elected mayor of Rio Rancho, but of any major city in the state. Her election would break new ground in the political landscape of the Southwest, and inspire more leaders of color to run for local office.

Danny Herrera won his race for Yakima, WA Council District 2. He is also an educator who threw his hat in the race so that members of his community could see themselves when they looked to local government. He is the first person of color to represent the majority Latino district.

Along with Savannah, it was part of the original inspiration for the resources we provide through the DMO Blue Star Candidate program.

DMO Statement on President Biden’s Build Back Better Framework
DMO Statement on President Biden’s Build Back Better Framework
President Biden is fulfilling the promise that brought Democrats to the voting booth in 2020 – a legislative agenda that puts hard-working Americans first.
Democrats are going to bat for the middle class by instituting two years of free preschool for more than six million children, limiting childcare costs to less than 7% of a family’s income, expanding Medicare for aging Americans, and building on the successes of the Affordable Care Act. In addition to these programs is a historic tax cut for tens of millions of middle-class workers, and an extension of the Child Tax Credit for 39 million families.
President Biden’s Build Back Better framework features the largest effort in history to combat climate change, ensuring that we reduce greenhouse gas emissions between 50 and 52 percent below 2005 levels by the year 2030. These landmark investments will be paid for responsibly, by making sure that the wealthiest people and businesses contribute their fair share of taxes.
Partnered with the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal, this historic legislative framework will help towns and cities rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic, creating millions of good-paying jobs to kickstart local economies and improving the quality of life for children and families.

The Board of Directors of Democratic Municipal Officials (DMO) has named the following Democrats Blue Star Candidates. Washington‘s Election Day is next Tuesday, November 2nd. We encourage you to look into these candidates and provide them moral and material support in this final week.
Jennifer Gregerson in her race for Mukilteo Mayor
Incumbent Mayor Jennifer Gregerson has led the city of Mukilteo through the pandemic, enforcing public health standards and keeping businesses afloat. She plans to continue creating good jobs, revitalizing the waterfront, and expanding public safety efforts. Gregerson faces a Republican former state representative and mayor, striking clear stakes between a progressive leader and a conservative. You can learn more at jennifergregerson.com.
Dexter Borbe in his race for Bellevue Council Position 2
Dexter Borbe intends to bring greater equity to Bellevue. His opponent is an incumbent on the city council, a Trump supporter who has stood in the way of more affordable housing. With Bellevue slated to host a new set of offices for Amazon, what happens there will be a bellwether for the future headquarter towns of other tech giants. You can learn more at electborbe.com.
Adrienne Fraley-Monillas in her race for Edmonds Council Position 3
Fraley-Monillas has saved taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars, kept taxes stable, and stood against coal trains on the waterfront. You can learn more at adriennemonillas.com.
Karl de Jong in his race for Sedro-Woolley Council
Karl de Jong is the only Democrat on the council in an R+16 district. He is a member of the DMO Policy Council, and his voice in elected office is a valuable dot of blue in an ocean of red. You can learn more about the race at karlforsedrowoolley.com.
Zack Zappone in his race for Spokane Council, District 3
As a teacher at high-poverty schools, Zappone saw that no matter how hard some students worked, they continued to face insurmountable obstacles outside of school — unstable housing, unsafe transit, mental health and substance abuse, and low paying jobs for their parents. Now he is running for City Council to be able to impact students’ lives beyond the classroom. The Spokane City Council’s progressive supermajority is at stake in this election, and with it the future of Washington‘s second largest city. With a conservative mayor and outside special interest money threatening the race, Zappone has an opportunity to not only reinforce the blue wall of local government, but represent Spokane as its first openly LGBTQ lawmaker. You can learn more at zackzappone.com.
Jacquelyn Belock in her race for Cheney Council, Position 3

Krystal Marx in her race for Burien Council Position 7
Burien was a deeply red until 2017, even as an adjacent suburb of Seattle. While some might assume the suburbs to be safely blue, they are in fact at risk of Republican takeover, and can serve as stepping stones for far-right candidates. Krystal Marx plans to continue her progressive work and hold the line against Republican encroachment. You can learn more at krystalmarx.com.
Mohamed Egal in his race for SeaTac Council Position 4
SeaTac is a majority minority city that currently has a Republican majority city council. Egal is running in part to take back the city for Democrats.

Naghmana Sherazi in her race for Spokane Council, District 1
Naghmana Sherazi identifies herself as part of the working poor. She has a Master’s degree, works full time, yet only brings home $18.27 an hour. Her story is familiar to a growing number of voters. She stands to bring the voice of a renter to the city council, representing a diversity in economic circumstances that we need in local government. Sherazi is running a unionized campaign, and would be the first Muslim on the Spokane City Council. You can learn more at peoplefornaghmana.com.
Nicole Thomas-Kennedy in her race for Seattle City Attorney
Major cities across the United States have elected a slate of progressive prosecutors, who seek to reform traditional law enforcement and root out the injustices built into our legal system. Thomas-Kennedy would join this cohort if elected Seattle’s next city attorney, bringing a focus on restorative justice and intervention to the office. She believes that everyone in Seattle deserves to live in safety, and you can learn more at ntk4justice.com.
Tameika Isaac Devine in her race for Columbia, SC Mayor

You can learn more at devineformayor.com.

Your Next Race

DMO Supports the Creation of the DNC Disability Caucus
Members of the Democratic National Committee,
Democratic Municipal Officials stands in support of the proposal to transform the DNC Disability Council into a caucus.
The purpose of a membership caucus within the DNC is to provide an organized coalition for those who share an inherent or immutable trait. A DNC caucus would fulfill this role for the disability community.
The Democratic Party has always been a home for people who are marginalized because of their backgrounds. Transforming the Disability Council into a caucus will take us one step further as a Party towards ensuring that every American can expect a government that provides not mere equality, but true equity for its citizens.
DMO applauds the work of Representative Tony Coelho for his work chairing the DNC Disability Council. His work advocating for Americans with disabilities, in particular those with “invisible disabilities” which are not always readily apparent, is a testimony to his character and the values of the Democratic Party. We know that his work will continue as the DNC forms the Disability Caucus.
Sincerely,
Derek Green
Councilman At-large, Philadelphia, PA
