DFI-CA is an official chartered Council of four clubs with the California Democratic Party advocating for the defense of Israel, opposition to Antisemitism and for other issues of concern to the Jewish community in the Democratic Party.
DFI-CA also promotes the liberal and progressive Democratic values to our many communities throughout the state through county clubs and at the state party level, supporting candidates for office and California Democratic Central Committee.
