Gasland: A film by Josh Fox

Dem Women, or UCDW, is an independent, grassroots organization devoted to bringing more Ulster County Democratic women into the political process and electing well-qualified Democratic women to public office at every level. Dem Women functions as a network and resource for all politically active Democratic women in the county. We provide a forum for the exchange of information and ideas and encourage new Democratic candidates and activists by providing mentors, training and support. Dem Women welcomes as members Democratic women and men from every part of Ulster County and beyond, from every walk of life and every constituency. We support and liaise with the Ulster County Democratic Committee, the Democratic Party’s official organization in the county.

We are dedicated to educating the public about the deliterious effects of the hydraulic drilling and to try to influence those person resonsible to stop the drilling with a moratorium, injunction, no permits or whatever legal terms possible and to try to cancel out the exemptions that the companies have from the Clean Water Act.
