What are Democratic Ideals and Values
The Pennsylvania Democratic Party brings together the political aspirations of a large and diverse group of people who share a set of core values. What is a Democrat? Democrats are people you see in your community: at work, at church, at the store, and at the ballpark. We come from all walks of life, but our shared beliefs and values help shape a strong state and nation where every citizen has the opportunity to succeed.
We believe in:
- Equal opportunity for all citizens
- Rewarding honest, hard work with a living wage and fair tax system
- Family values that are more than a political slogan
- Quality education that gives all citizens the opportunity to reach their potential
- Freedom from government interference in our private lives and personal decisions
- A diverse population and the benefits derived from diversity
- Security in our homes and safety on our streets
- Separation of church and state to preserve individual freedom, as set forth in the Constitution
- A Strong United States - morally, economically, diplomatically, and militarily
- Laws that protect and preserve our environment, including common-sense reforms for cleaner and safer air and water
- An honest and open government that is accountable to the American people
- Providing affordable and quality healthcare to all Americans
