Virginia Needs A New Way

It’s time to build a new Democratic majority in Virginia, one that puts people ahead of corporate money and influence.

The “Virginia Way” status quo, where an elite political and corporate class rigs the system to enrich themselves at the expense of working class Virginians, cannot meet the multiple challenges Virginia is facing in the 21st century.

We believe that open and fair primaries are an important part of a healthy democracy. Voters should get the opportunity to choose the best possible candidate who reflects their values. We believe everyone should have a voice and a vote in our electoral system and a vote that matters.

 

VAJD is fighting for Social, Racial, Economic, & Environmental Justice.

Our Mission is to elect a new type of Democratic majority in Virginia, one that fosters compassionate and just communities; a thriving clean energy based economy; and an inclusive democracy of, by, and for the people, NOT Big Money interests. Virginia Justice Democrats are fighting for justice for ALL.

Social Justice

Equality in the distribution of wealth, opportunity, and privilege within society.

Racial Justice

Systematic fair treatment of people of all races, resulting in equitable opportunities and outcomes for all.

Economic Justice

The opportunity for each person to live dignified, productive and creative lives free from poverty, hunger and the destabilization caused by unsustainable gaps in wealth.

Environmental Justice

A Green New Deal is the only plan that aims to transform our economy to address the dual crisis of massive socioeconomic inequality and the existential threat of human-induced climate change.
