In case you missed our big announcement yesterday, we’re thrilled to be bringing our 10th annual Power and Policy Summit and New American Hero Awards back to Washington, D.C. this December!

At the New American Hero Awards on December 1st—our first in-person celebration since 2019!—we’ll be celebrating the incredible leadership and achievements of New Americans across the country.

Then, on Friday, December 2nd, we will bring together New American elected and appointed officials, organizers, government staffers, and campaign leaders at our Power and Policy Summit to discuss some of the most pressing challenges facing our country and share best practices we can implement in our communities.

RSVP today to join us in Washington, D.C. to celebrate our New American Heroes and learn alongside fellow New American leaders at our Power and Policy Summit!

"A lot of the gains that you see are in places where there are investments in new American leadership and new American communities—whether it is voter access or having new Americans on the ballot," Ghida Dagher, president of New American Leaders and New American Leaders Action Fund, told Axios.

New Americans are flexing our growing political power and working to close the representational gap in state legislatures. And while 18 states added at least one New American legislator since 2020, there are still nine states without any New American representation.

Read how we're working to close the gap and empower the next cohort of leaders in this Axios article.

Last week, we held our Ready to Win training in Washington, D.C.—our first in-person Ready to Win in three years—and where do we begin... In just four days, our 29 Ready to Win participants from across the country improved their values-based stump speeches, learned what’s needed to run a winning campaign, and got prepared to run, proving to us that they are ready to change the face of leadership, one seat at a time. THIS is what democracy looks like! ✊🏽✊🏿✊🏼✊🏾
