Mission Statement: The Progressive/Populist Caucus stands for reclaiming the Texas Democratic Party's historic purpose of achieving a more just society by returning our Party and our government to the people first.

I.    In order to re-invigorate the Democratic grassroots, we will work toward:

• Training at all levels of the Texas Democratic Party, from the precinct level to the County Chair, to SDEC and DNC members
• Improvement of internal and external data management
• Building a self-sustaining Texas Democratic Party
• Identification of areas that the Texas Democratic Party should target for additional resources

II.    We will recruit and elect progressive candidates to the SDEC and all other Party positions.  We will support our members on party committees.

III.    We seek a coherent governmental agenda arising from the platform of this Party at all echelons and in all branches of government.

IV.    We will submit resolutions to the Texas Democratic Party to accomplish the following:

• Parliamentary agenda-setting for party business at all levels
• Early delegate participation in Party platform, rules, and governance resolution drafting prior to Party Conventions
• More grassroots participation during the primary from the precinct level up
