As the official student wing of the Pennsylvania Democratic Party, we are dedicated college students organizing peers across the state. Our mission is to empower and engage the next generation of voters in Pennsylvania.

We foster democratic ideals and active political participation, making an impact at universities and in local communities. Through education, advocacy, and mobilization, we champion progressive causes and support Democratic candidates.

“Lets be clear: We are not Just underrepresented, we are under ATTACK… Our universities? Run like corporations. Our democracy? Auctioned off to the highest bidder. And students? Treated like liabilities the second we raise our voices… We need campaign finance reform. We need education that doesn’t bankrupt us. And we need a system that doesn’t profit off the things we need to live: Clean water, A roof over our head, Affordable food, and Healthcare that keeps us alive. We are students. We are workers. We are organizers. And WE ARE NOT AFRAID.”

~ Austin Wise, President, PA College Dems
