About Us
The Democratic Treasurers Association is dedicated to electing and supporting Democratic state treasurers.
The elected Democratic state treasurers oversee more than a trillion dollars of investments held in state operating funds and pension funds.
Individually and as a group they are powerful advocates with a unique ability to exert influence that defies the constraints of the electoral map.
The Democratic Treasurers Association’s objectives are:
-
To ensure that public and private companies take sufficient short-term actions to address long-term systemic risks including climate change and public health.
-
To ensure that America has the infrastructure needed to lead the world in productivity, and that the American workers who create and maintain that infrastructure get a fair share of the prosperity generated from that productivity.
-
To ensure that Americans who work hard and play by the rules can afford to educate their kids, manage economic shocks, and safely retire.
