January 2022
Dear Friend,
Happy new year! 2022 is officially here, and for Ruth's List Florida that means one thing -- it's an election year. As you know, we never skip a beat in our efforts to recruit, train, and elect Democratic pro-choice women to office. That's why we spent last year building, growing, and expanding our capacity. I'm excited to share some major staffing changes that will enable us to support a record number of women candidates as we start the 2022 midterm election season:
*
Political
Director
Kayla
vanWieringen
has
been
promoted
to
Vice
President
of
Political
and
Programs
*
Miranda
Colavito
joins
Ruth's
List
as
full-time
Deputy
Political
Director
*
Dallas
Rawlins
is
now
our
full-time
Operations
Coordinator
We’re thrilled to have Kayla take on a senior leadership role and be fully staffed with incredible talent. Ruth's List is more committed than ever to investing in women leaders who will change the political dynamic in Florida, and I could not be more excited for this team to execute our vision.
In honor of our new team, will you help us kick off the new year and ensure we have the resources necessary to elect a record number of women in the midterm elections? [[link removed]]
We can't do this without you. Your support has been vital to growing our team and supporting women's leadership. I look forward to our partnership and what we will accomplish together this year!
Onward,
[[link removed]]Lucy Sedgwick, President & CEO
