Hi Friend, I’m Roohi, the Biden-Harris 2024 National Organizing Director! When Campaign Manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez asked me to join this fight to reelect Joe and Kamala, I couldn’t say yes fast enough.
Let me tell you why.
This year, organizing is not just an important part of our campaign’s strategy -- it’s central to getting out President Biden and Vice President Harris’s story of progress.
In 2020, volunteers across the country had conversations with voters, reached out to key communities, and empowered folks to take action, all from their living rooms and kitchen tables. That kind of collective power is even more essential this year, in an election that will determine the future of our democracy and fundamental freedoms.
As the first LGBTQ person and first woman of color in this role, this election is deeply personal to me.
I grew up in community organizing, where you can’t just turn away from your neighbor or city official -- you have to face every campaign and every election, from school board races to federal elections, with empathy and understanding. Because empathy wins races and builds power.
There are no two people more empathetic than Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. They listen to the stories core to each and every one of us, and they’ve always fought to change lives for the better. They face difficult moments with an unwavering desire to do what’s right by the American people and they’ve led on the progress we’ve made on health care, infrastructure, and so much more.
That’s why I’m on board with Joe and Kamala, and why I’m thrilled to be organizing to keep them in the White House. But the only way that we can build a strong, winning campaign is if folks like you join us.
So, I’m excited to personally invite you to celebrate the 14th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act with President Joe Biden, President Barack Obama, and Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, happening THIS Saturday, March 23, at 12 p.m. ET!
I’m so excited to work alongside you this year. Trust me when I say that none of this work is possible without folks like you on our team.
When we organize, we win. Thank you for all you do.
More soon,
Roohi
