United Democrats of Waterbury
Who we are and what do we stand for?
Founded in 2025 - The United Democrats of Waterbury is a diverse, grassroots coalition of neighbors, educators, community leaders, public servants, and everyday residents who believe that our city deserves a new kind of leadership—one that is transparent, accountable, and rooted in the lived experiences of the people it serves.
We are proud Democrats, united by a shared commitment to equity, justice, and meaningful change in our community. We are challenging the status quo and building a movement that reflects the true diversity, resilience, and potential of Waterbury.
We came together out of a deep love for our city and a growing recognition that too many of Waterbury’s residents—especially in our most marginalized neighborhoods—have been left out of the political process and underserved by current leadership. Our mission is to bring power back to the people by amplifying local voices, promoting civic engagement, and electing leaders who are present, responsive, and ready to work for all of Waterbury.
We believe that real progress begins when leadership reflects the people. That means listening first, acting with integrity, and always putting community needs before personal or political gain.
We are united. We are ready. We are Waterbury.
