Working for Progressive Values in Summit County Our Principles As members of the Summit County Progressive Democrats, we believe in: -a government of, by and for the people of the United States -the immutability of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and the freedoms, rights and protections they convey to the American people -equal economic opportunity for all people of the United States and an equitable distribution of nation's wealth -recognition of the responsibility of American society to assist those citizens who cannot or can no longer provide for themselves -a respect for the environment and the responsibility for its stewardship -social justice for all individuals regardless of race, gender or sexual orientation -a separation of church and state in the development of public policy and its implementation -support for a strong and equitable public education system -the right of every individual to affordable healthcare -an equitable, accountable election system where the right of every citizen to vote and to have that vote counted is honored -an open and transparent government that truly informs its citizens and supports discussion and consideration for opposing viewpoints -a foreign policy that advocates multilateralism and cooperation with other countries in the maintenance of U.S. security and world peace -preemptive war as a foreign policy is contrary to American and international law -a woman's right to reproductive choice -the right of labor to freely organize and participate in collective bargaining -the concept that a people's right to dissent and to oppose policies they deem harmful to the common good is an essential ingredient of democracy -true patriotism requires three elements: a deep love of one's country; a willingness to praise and defend its virtues; and the courage to recognize and correct its deficiencies. -a free and unencumbered media is essential to a fully functioning democracy, and that our media must be protected from political and corporate manipulation. -Government has a responsibility to protect the public from unsafe and unfair practices and products. The mission of the Summit County Progressive Democrats PAC (SCPD PAC) is to create a more just society by advocating issues and candidates who advance progressive ideals, where people can work together to articulate domestic and foreign policies that support human rights, equal economic opportunity, social justice and environmental stewardship. We work to expand grassroots participation in the political process and to return the government of this nation to the will of the people.
