Ah, thank you for flagging. I found the "concrete reforms" phrase. (See that reso below.) I read this resolution as more of a floor than the ceiling the "abolish" language clearly is.

BREAKING: the Democratic National Committee just unanimously approved a resolution calling for the abolition of ICE! After terrorizing our friends, families, and neighbors, ICE has no place in our nation. I'm grateful @democrats.org agreed. Now we're onto the hard work to make that happen!

Trump's 250th anniversary isn't going so great. Performers dropped out. Crowds didn't show up. So one MAGA influencer in an Uncle Sam costume allegedly took matters into his own hands.

Normal people rest when they break their elbow. I travel to Pittsburgh for a DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee meeting to wrap up discussion on the 2028 Delegate Selection Rules. I am not normal. Watch our meeting here: www.youtube.com/live/emkaqxN...

Y'all, be careful with your jokes about the Reflecting Pool turning algae green even though Trump wanted "American Flag Blue." You're laughing now, but it'll take just one Truth Social post to declare that the American Flag always looked like this.

A flat, graphic illustration of the American flag, customized so that the traditional blue canton (the star field) is replaced with a solid, muted olive green color of the Reflecting Pool.

Earlier today @shasti.bsky.social was elected #DNC Vice Chair with a vote of 225 (55.7%) to 177 (43.8%) for Kalyn Free. This win confirmed that @democrats.org want positive campaigns with a clear vision for our future—and ensures that at least one of our elected officers is #AAPI. Congrats Shasti!

On the "any gender" ballot for DNC Vice Chair, Shasti Conrad received 176.5 votes (43%), Kalyn Free received 148 votes (36%), and Jeanna Repass received 80 votes (19%). With a majority required to win, we move to a final ballot. On this ballot, I again vote for @shasti.bsky.social.

Michael Kapp @michaelkapp.com · 15/06/2025

For the final #DNC Vice Chair seat, I voted for @shasti.bsky.social, Chair of Washington State. Results will be known Tuesday afternoon.

Michael Kapp @michaelkapp.com · 12/06/2025

With David Hogg dropping out of the #DNC Voice Chair race yesterday, there's only one candidate for the male Vice Chair position. I'm proud to vote for Malcolm Kenyatta.

Michael Kapp @michaelkapp.com · 11/06/2025

In line with my actions on the #DNC Credentials Committee, I voted against the resolution that would vacate the seats of Malcolm Kenyatta and David Hogg. I also voted in favor of the election rules, should the resolution pass and we hold new elections for their two Vice Chair seats.

Michael Kapp @michaelkapp.com · 10/06/2025

It was great to see so many friends at today's rally in downtown #LosAngeles to protest #ICE raids and Trump's attacks on our neighbors & our values. But it was even better to hear afterwards that #SEIU California President #DavidHuerta was released from his wrongful detention. #FreeDavidEndRaids

It was good to catch up with #DNC @democrats.org Vice Chair @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social at the @cademocrats.bsky.social Convention in Anaheim. He brought the 🔥 to general session this morning!

When Jewish children learn about how the Holocaust occurred, we were taught Martin Niemöller's "First They Came" poem. If you think Donald "stand back and stand by" Trump & Elon "Nazi salute" Musk will limit their attacks to pro-Palestinian protestors and go no further, you should think again.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Artie Blanco from NV won a majority on the second ballot. On this ballot, we are allowed to vote for one male and one of either gender. On the third round, I voted for Shasti Conrad, the Chair of Washington State, and gun safety and young people activist David Hogg.

Michael Kapp @michaelkapp.com · 02/02/2025

We have results of the first ballot. No one reached a majority and a few candidates were eliminated and others dropped out. We are now allowed to vote for two candidates on this ballot. On the second ballot, I voted for @mdeatrick.bsky.social and DNC reform champion Jim Zogby.

Michael Kapp @michaelkapp.com · 02/02/2025

For the first ballot for the first Vice Chair position, as the only DNC Member evacuated from the Los Angeles wildfires caused & inflamed by the impacts of climate change, I cast my vote for @mdeatrick.bsky.social, the founder and Chair of the DNC's Environmental and Climate Crisis Council.

#DNCchair @jaimeharrison.bsky.social did an exit interview with the Associated Press, and #DNC Members and the new DNC Officers we elect tomorrow would be smart to keep his wise words in mind. Thank you Chair Harrison for everything you've done for our Democratic Party.

I'm a DNC Member. Marianne Williamson @marwilliamson.bsky.social invited us to meet her over Zoom. But I was kicked off & banned within 5 minutes. Here's the question I wasn't allowed to ask: as DNC Chair, how will you ensure accessibility and transparency of you & the DNC? Guess I got my answer.

Speaking of the forums, here is the info the DNC has shared with DNC Members.

Thursday, January 9, 2025 - Detroit, Michigan in-person
Candidates must have submitted 40 verified DNC member signatures no later than 12 PM ET on Thursday, January 2, 2025 to participate
Thursday, January 16, 2025 - Virtual
For any candidate that did not qualify for the January 11 forum, candidates must have submitted 40 verified DNC member signatures no later than 12 PM ET on Thursday, January 9, 2025 to participate
Thursday, January 23, 2025 - Virtual
For any candidate that did not qualify for the January 16 forum, candidates must have submitted 40 verified DNC member signatures no later than 12 PM ET on Thursday, January 16, 2025 to participate
Thursday, January 30, 2025 - Washington, District of Columbia in-person
For any candidate that did not qualify for the January 23 forum, candidates must have submitted 40 verified DNC member signatures no later than 8 PM ET on Saturday, January 25, 2025 to participate and to qualify for the February 1 ballot

Each forum will include separate forums for engagement with all offices– Chair, Treasurer, Secretary, National Finance Chair, Vice Chair for Civic Engagement and Voter Participation and Vice Chair. The length of each forum will depend on the number of qualified and participating candidates, not to exceed 90 minutes each.

The forums will be open to the public, but they will be geared primarily towards the DNC members who will vote to determine the elections themselves, with each of the four forums further emphasizing a specific region and giving priority to questions from DNC members of that region. Each forum will feature a combination of questions formulated by the moderator and questions submitted by DNC members and members of the public. DNC members will be afforded the opportunity to submit questions in advance of each forum, and the moderator will select which member-submitted questions are asked during the forum. The content of each forum will be determined exclusively by an impartial moderator.
