by Paul Dragu, The New American:
Is there any daylight between admitted communists and Democrats? The New American compared the platforms of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) with the positions of the Democratic Party.
The first issue mentioned on communist’s 2024 platform is one near and near to Democrats, one of the few that Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris hasn’t publicly backtracked on. The communists declare: “We oppose the Supreme Court decision and support having Congress and the President codify Roe v. Wade into law to restore a national right to choose.”

This is the exact position of the Democratic Party. Last week, Harris said during an interview with Wisconsin Public Radio that she believes the filibuster should be eliminated so abortion can be codified into federal law. This sentiment has been expressed numerous times by various members of the Democratic Party, including President Joe Biden.
Communists also advocate for government takeover of healthcare. “We believe that healthcare is a right,” CPUSA says. “We need a Medicare-for-all healthcare system that is free to all Americans.”
During her failed 2020 presidential bid, Harris endorsed a Medicare for All bill introduced by admitted socialist Bernie Sanders. Democrats, of course, also passed ObamaCare, which further increased government participation in healthcare while making private healthcare more unaffordable. It’s no secret that Democrats believe in complete government control of healthcare, despite what Harris, who has recently flipped on nearly every major position she has long held, says now.
The “climate crisis” is a topic communists and Democrats screech equally loudly about.
“Climate change is one of the most pressing issues of our time, affecting every aspect of the environment and human life,” CPUSA says. “We need urgent economic, legislative, and regulatory changes focused on climate action — net-zero emissions and renewable energy, green jobs, social equity, modern infrastructure, and ending our dependence on fossil fuels.”
Here is how the 2024 Democratic Party platform talks about climate change:
“Across the country, Americans experience the dire impacts of climate change…. The climate crisis is an existential threat to future generations who deserve better. President Biden is delivering on the most aggressive climate agenda in history.”
The only difference is one is calling for action, the other is bragging about what it’s already done. Democrats are ahead of the communists.
Democrats and communists are also in harmony in their support of mob rule.
In 2020, The Washington Post asked all the Democratic presidential primary candidates if they supported eliminating the Electoral College and replacing it with a national popular vote. A majority of them, 15 out of 26, said yes, with an additional three, Kamala Harris included, answering they were open to the idea.
Democrats and communists advocate “democracy,” or majority rule, especially when it comes to elections. “It is imperative that a new universal federal election law and process be put into place to guarantee free and fair elections — one person, one vote,” CPUSA says.
Both also support statehood for Washington, D.C., mail-in voting, and ending the filibuster completely.
