In Rememberance of Michael Sperberg-McQueen
(May 18, 1954 - August 16, 2024)

Michael Sperberg-McQueen

 

“I first met Michael, when Cheryl Harris asked me to help work on the resolution, regarding the Transparency and Consistency of the Standing Committees. I believe that was October of 2022. Michael was the secretary of the Caucus at that time. Work on the resolution had started about a year earlier, but had lost momentum. I started working with Michael, Jane Yee and Patty French. Michael was the go-to guy when it came to Robert’s Rules of Order and ferreting out the Rules of the Party. He was meticulous and thoughtful. He was also known for having pregnant pauses in his conversation and I was corrected politely more than once, that he was not finished. I learned to appreciate his complex thinking and his need for detail. There were times when my dry humor struck him as humorous that a huge chuckle sprang out with joy. I grew to appreciate his vast knowledge, his kind heart and his generous spirit to help. I will truly miss him.”

    – Scotti Romberg, Vice Chair

“Michael was very helpful to Fair Albuquerque Redistricting, even though he didn’t even live in the area. He drew maps for us and helped the group evaluate proposed redistricting plans throughout the process. Michael was also instrumental in the updating of the Adelante bylaws that occurred a few years ago. He was deliberative, precise, and generous in spirit. Michael was an asset to Adelante and the progressive community.”

Adelante Progressive Caucus values:

    1. Social, racial, economic, gender, and environmental justice;
    2. Ecological care of the Earth and all life;
    3. Principles and practices of peace in our state, country, and across the world.

To advance these values, the Adelante Progressive Caucus will work to:

    1. Create transparency and accountability in all functions of our state and national party;
    2. Reach out to historically underrepresented communities across our state to include their voices in the democratic process;
    3. Promote democracy by insisting that our elected officials represent the values and interests of ALL the diverse peoples and lands of New Mexico;
    4. Eliminate the influence of big money, whether corporate or individual from elections and the legislative process.

We believe the Democratic Party needs to adhere to the principles included in the Preamble of the Charter of the Democratic Party of the United States:

“[A] political party which wishes to lead must listen to those it would lead, a party which asks for the people’s trust must prove that it trusts the people and a party which hopes to call forth the best the Nation can achieve must embody the best of the Nation’s heritage and traditions.”

“[A]ware that a party must be responsive to be worthy of responsibility, we pledge ourselves to open, honest endeavor and to the conduct of public affairs in a manner worthy of a society of
free people.”

(Excerpted from the Preamble of the Charter of the Democratic Party of the United States)

Together, we can work within the party to ensure that all voices are heard and our elected officials are held accountable.

We invite you to join the Adelante Progressive Caucus today.

All registered Democrats are welcome!
