#BetOnBlack, Candidate Video Series
The Collective PAC released new installments of our #BetOnBlack
candidate video series. We featured New York Attorney General
Letitia James, who
are both running for re-election;
Deidre DeJear who is
running to become Iowa's first Black governor; and
Jevin Hodge and
Steven Horsford who
are running for the U.S. House of Representatives in Arizona and Nevada.
We're Building a Pipeline of Black Political Talent
As our nation and communities become increasingly multicultural and
multi-racial, staff-leading campaign messaging and strategy must also reflect
the growing diversity of our electorate - and that requires intentionality. It
is critical to have Black campaign leaders and staff who are familiar with the
interests and needs of voters, and who can help Black candidates connect
authentically with the communities they are working to represent.
To this end, The Collective PAC is proud to have launched our
Campaign Jobs Board to provide greater opportunities for
diverse and dynamic talent to support and work with our endorsed candidates.
