Come see us in Richmond!
Grassroots activism is key to our success in the 2025 elections. That’s why we’re hosting a FREE Candidate Bootcamp in Virginia, designed specifically for Democrats who want to make a difference, on Saturday, April 5, 9AM to 4PM Eastern, in the Richmond area.
Whether you’re considering a run for office or working on a campaign, this training will give you the skills and knowledge needed to mobilize your community and keep Virginia blue.
Our CEO, Kelly Dietrich, joined the On Democracy podcast with FP Wellman. Learn more about how NDTC is the only organization that demystifies – and yes, democratizes – running for office or working on a campaign. Training Democrats nationwide is how we fight back against far-right extremism and the MAGA agenda.

Our Learners are Making a HUGE Impact!

ACLU
Protect Your Data
Demand that our private records not be illegally accessed, analyzed, or weaponized by Trump, DOGE, and an unaccountable team of unvetted outsiders. Congress must step up, do its job, and check the president’s violations of our rights.
What’s On Our Newsfeeds

Why this story is important:
Across the country, Democrats are winning in red districts! This Pennsylvania state Senate seat is the latest red to blue flip.
In 2025, there are over 100k+ seats up for grabs, so even if you live in a red district, 2025 is your year to run for office!

Why this story is important:
Elections at every level of government matter and can have life or death consequences for people. Democratic Governor Andy Beshear vetoed a bill that ignores medical standards and further endangers people by defining what emergencies allow for abortion care.

Why this story is important:
This incompetence by Trump’s Cabinet members endangered the lives of our service members. It is common sense to communicate sensitive military plans through secure lines of communication, and a group chat with a journalist is anything but secure. If they can “lead” the country, you can run for office. 👊🔥

Why this story is important:
In the Trump administration’s latest attempt to undermine a free press, DOGE is going after NPR and PBS. If funding for these programs gets cut, people, especially in rural areas and news deserts, will have less access to credible reporting and the stories in rural America will likely receive less – if any – coverage.
