About Democratic Lawmakers

The term **"Democratic Lawmakers"** broadly refers to elected officials affiliated with the Democratic Party in the United States at various government levels rather than a single formal organization. However, the closest formal entities related to organizing and supporting Democratic elected officials include the **Democratic National Committee (DNC)** and the **Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC)**, which play key roles in party leadership, electoral strategy, and legislative coordination.
