I’m thrilled, humbled, & honored to be tapped to lead the effort at @DemRedistrict into the future. I’m so proud of the work we’ve done over the last 6 years to make our democracy a fairer place – and I cannot wait to build upon our strong foundation.
nytimes.com/2023/03/10/us/… In these 6 yrs, I've been amazed by how much we’ve grown & how much progress we’ve made. None of that would have been possible without the steady hand & clear vision of @kellycward.
I’m so grateful for her partnership & mentorship as I try to do the impossible, fill her shoes.
