SPONSOR HIGHLIGHTS
 SEIU is committed to building a new era of worker power to push back against the rigged system that keeps workers from advancing. We're partnering with allies to ensure every worker has the right to a union. Together, we'll fight corporate greed and racist narratives that give those in power too much control. Corporate greed must be stopped—uniting in unions will help to hold them accountable as they blame inflation for price hikes while celebrating record profits. Workers are done taking the fall for GREEDflation! Join us in this fight. SIGN ON today!
 Planned Parenthood Action Fund is an independent, nonpartisan, not-for-profit membership organization formed as the advocacy and political arm of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. The Action Fund engages in educational, advocacy, and limited electoral activity, including grassroots organizing, legislative advocacy, and voter education. Catch them at A Cross-Movement Approach to Building Power and Winning Elections, Thursday at 4 p.m. in Room 309.
The work of Black Male Voter Project is to increase the number of Black men who are super voters. As the
only national organization that solely focuses on the voting habits of
Black men, we launched this organization because we saw the shortcomings
in current techniques as methods of reaching Black men who were not
super voters. Traditional campaigning is insufficient to expand the
universe of sporadic or low information Black men that participate in
the electoral process. Catch Black Male Voter Project during our Opening Reception immediately following our opening keynote on the Outdoor Terrace.
