Democrats of Rossmoor Human Rights Statement – 2025

The Democrats of Rossmoor believe we need to defend our rights and the organizations that protect them in the pursuit of justice. We must meet the challenge stated by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg, “Fight for the things that you care about but do it in a way that will lead others to join you.”

Our American community has benefited from a strong and healthy democracy based on our Constitution, with the checks and balances ensured through the strength of its three co-equal branches of government. In addition, our society has also long fostered the development of strong non-governmental sources of power and influence such as independent educational institutions, media, religious organizations, and legal defense groups who champion justice.

These organizations have provided protection, though imperfect, against discrimination that targets people based on their race, religion, immigrant status, gender identity, sexual orientation, economic status, or any other unique characteristic. These democratic protectors are now under duress and threat, and we must take action to defend our rights.
