Investing in PA & Developing Campaign Staff
Earlier this year, progressives celebrated a major win in Pennsylvania, where we saw Summer Lee overcome a deluge of outside money and successfully primary a two-decade incumbent securing her nomination as PA-12’s Democratic candidate for the upcoming general election. We have a real opportunity to reign in more progressive wins and make history that will impact not only the future of Pennsylvania but the country as a whole.
We are recognizing the unique opportunity to dismantle oppressive powers and elect working class champions who will apply new practices that build equity, dignity, and justice for our most vulnerable communities.
Whether you're a current staffer, an aspiring staffer, organizer, or community leader -- we need you and we have the place for you!
