DA Austria Annual General Meeting

 

2026 Annual General Meeting 

DA Austria’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held in person and online on Sunday, March 15, 2026, at 2 p.m. All DA Austria members are welcome to join the meeting. We especially hope to see many of our members who live outside of Vienna and may not normally attend the AGM! Any American 18 or older by the next federal election and residing in Austria may also join the meeting and vote.

At the meeting we'll present reports on 2025, discuss and vote on amendments to the DA Austria Bylaws (see below), and discuss get out the vote and outreach plans for the upcoming midterms. 

DA Austria is required in our Bylaws to hold an AGM prior to March 31 of each year. We also have a quorum requirement to make the meeting valid. 

Please help us meet these challenges by joining the AGM in person or online!

After we conclude our business, we invite you to stay for a volunteer fair — with wine and snacks — where you can learn about the many ways to get involved: our protest and action group, the planning committee for our U.S. 250th Anniversary July 4th Party, voter outreach, spring and fall voter registration tables, and phone banking. Whatever your interests or availability, there is a place for you in this community. If you want to get involved, but can’t make the AGM, please contact [email protected].

Your participation, activism, and donations have made DA Austria a strong and vital organization for more than twenty years. In 2026, we’ll continue working to strengthen the voice and vote of all our members.

Please RSVP for the meeting here.

DA Austria ByLaws Amendments

Why are we amending our bylaws?

During the 2025 DA Global Annual General Meeting, a number of amendments were adopted to simplify the way Country Committees (such as DA Austria) are able to elect and replace voting members of the global body formally known as the Democratic Party Committee Abroad (DPCA). 

At our DA Austria Annual General Meeting on March 15, our members will have the opportunity to learn more about the amendments and the proposed changes to our bylaws and vote to adopt the current draft. The DA Austria Excom reviewed and adopted the proposed amendments for submission to the DA Austria bylaws at the January ExCom meeting on January 15, 2026. See the DAAT 2026 Update Comparison.
