About the Block Captain Program:

Serving as a Block Captain means you are responsible for connecting with 50 voters in your neighborhood to elect Democrats up and down the ballot. We adapt the model for Rural Captains, Apartment Captains and Dorm Captains.

We’re ready to take back all levels of government for the people — from city councils and school boards to the Legislature, and Congress!

The best way to elect Democrats is on a personal level at the doors with conversations about how to vote and the issues we care about.

We must communicate our values. We know the current one-party rule at the state level is bad for democracy. Block Captains build relationships with their neighbors and become the point of contact when they have questions or need assistance around election time.

It is clear the Republican Party is now so extreme they have totally lost what it means to serve and to put people first. Whether it is the violent insurrection, separating children and families, allowing giant corporations to pollute the land water, and air, taking away reproductive rights, shutting down the government, and giving the biggest government handout in decades to millionaires and billionaires while pretending they are giving tax cuts to our families or cutting health insurance and food stamps to working families. The GOP is now the party of mean and we are ready to take our state back.

We now have more than 750 Block Captains. If you have any questions about the program, send an email to gina@nebraskademocrats.org
