We will be there July 18-21 to see what's going on and talk to young democrats from across the country.

A recent e-mail sent out highlight some of the speakers at this years convention-- Senator John Edwards, former Texas Agriculture Secretary Jim Hightower, Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson, Sierra Club Executive Director Carl Pope, John Stolz from VoteVets, and others.

The YDA Convention will also have training sessions, a community service project with Democrats Work, and our national officer elections. Feel free to register or learn more at their website.

Register by July 1st (5.00 / 1)

Just saw that the price goes up for registration after July 1st for the YDA convention! So, now is a good time to register. And that John Edwards is the first presidential candidate to commit to being there. The fact that this convention is being held in Dallas is great. Hopefully, the conservative news outlets will take note of all the young Democrats around town for the 4 days in July. :)
