Help us foster the next generation of progressive leaders

Ayanna Pressley for Congress

Hey there, it’s Eliza — Ayanna’s campaign manager. Unlike many other campaigns out there, our team invests in year-round, community-based organizing.

We believe in the politics of transformation, not transaction. Our theory of change relies on us having meaningful conversations and connections with members of our community – not just dropping in when it’s time to get out and vote. That’s how we’re able to make a difference in our district and grow our progressive movement in the long run.

With that, our team is currently hiring summer fellows onto our staff. Campaign fellows will focus on voter registration, community building, deep canvassing around important issues like immigration and student debt, and combating disinformation about Trump’s agenda. This program allows us to build a deep bench of young, progressive talent in our district and our party.

And since our campaign is entirely grassroots-funded, the impact of this fellowship program is determined by how much we raise from emails like this one.

In the spirit of transparency, we believe in paying our fellows a living wage for their valuable work building relationships with voters and volunteers. Grassroots supporters like you make this program possible. Help us bring more young, brilliant leaders to the table. Will you pitch in today and help support a campaign fellow?

If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your contribution instantly:

As our boss likes to say: She didn’t run for Congress for a seat at the table. You can’t bring a new chair to an old table. No, Ayanna is in Congress to build new tables.

Our fellowship program is an essential way to bring more talented young people from different backgrounds into the Democratic party. Your support right now allows our campaign to invest in the next generation of progressive leaders.

As we look ahead to 2026 and beyond, organizing communities year-round is going to be the key to taking back the House, building strong opposition against the Trump administration, and growing public support for our progressive policies.

Every dollar and every hour of organizing will make a real difference. Can you please pitch in $15, $20, or anything you can right now to sponsor a campaign fellow today?

Onward,

Eliza
