CODA gave birth to the national group, the American Democracy Alliance that was formed to target other red states, Texas and Virginia among them, in an attempt to duplicate the Colorado success. Their progressive agenda includes social justice, climate change, voting rights, gun control, illegal immigrant amnesty and campaign finance as well as sustained strategic investment to turn red states blue.
