EDDI members march July 3 in the Mundelein parade.

Are you better off now than you were eight years ago?

When you look around today you find that civil rights are being trampled, our Constitution is being ignored, the press is being silenced, and the "I'm a uniter not a divider President" is busy using laser guided diplomacy.  The economy has stagnated and the war drums beat ceaselessly.  Now more than ever, it's important to remember that you have the freedom and the power to make a difference.

Make your voice heard. If you don't speak up, who will?

EDDI offers Democrats and independent voters a speakers program, meet-the-candidate forums, parade participation, a picnic in the summer and a chance to make your voice heard. Our meetings and events give you the opportunity to participate in the political process in Illinois's 8th Congressional district -- at national, state and local levels.
