DPA Chair Marcus Jones

NEWS — I’m officially running to be the next Chair of @ArkDems After 33 years in the US Army, I know that leadership means having a clear mission and building the team to achieve it. Our Party’s mission now: to organize, modernize, and win from school boards to the US Senate.

TODAY, Senators John Boozman & Tom Cotton voted to make health care even more expensive for Arkansas families. Disappointed, but not surprised… We deserve so much better, y’all.

CHOOSE YOUR FIGHTER

As someone who served our nation in uniform for more than 3 decades, I want to be clear: renaming the Department of Defense is just plain stupid. Trump wants to distract you from his tanking economy, the Epstein cover-up, and countless broken promises. It’s a damn shame.

Grateful for the opportunity to speak to the Drew County Democrats in Monticello— let me tell you, these folks are fired up to build the bench and build up the party! We are so grateful they are on our team. If you’re with us, join your county party here: arkdems.org/counties/

Rep. French Hill (AR-02) is complicit in the Epstein cover-up. He blames Democrats—as if he’s not the one in Congress. Hill could be one of the final of the signatories on the BIPARTISAN petition to release the files. Instead, he’ll keep blame Dems for his lack of courage.

Happy Labor Day, Arkansas! Every Arkansan can agree that if you work a full-time job, you should be able to live with dignity.  Labor organizers believe that, workers believe that, and Arkansas Democrats are fighting to achieve that.

I was lucky to attend the 30th Annual College Day Service at True Holiness Saints Center in Conway yesterday. Grateful to the folks that hosted this inspiring event, & to the 600+ UCA, Hendrix, CBC & Shorter College students that participated👏 It's going to be an amazing year!

Leadership means listening. We will keep an open door for county chairs, auxiliaries, activists, and every Democrat who wants to be heard. Together, we can build the future of our Party and the future of Arkansas. @ArkDems

County parties and auxiliaries are the heart of @ArkDems. We will make sure they have the resources, training, and support they need to thrive—because strong counties are the foundation for winning statewide.

“Raise money and elect Democrats” isn’t a plan.

Our mission for @arkdems is CLEAR: 1️⃣ Build a 5-year plan that spans two election cycles. 2️⃣ Recruit, train, and support candidates at every level. 3️⃣ Grow county party capacity and auxiliary engagement. 4️⃣ Modernize fundraising and outreach. This is how we will win—together.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve spent hours talking with State Committee members from across Arkansas. It’s their wisdom and continued leadership that will guide the strategic plan we build together for our State Party. @ArkDems
