This program is hosted by our partner, Funders' Committee for Civic Participation (FCCP), who has extended an invitation to PNY members. Space is limited and will be granted on a first come, first served basis.*

Following the 2018 midterm elections, pro democracy organizing established gains that demonstrated how citizen driven initiatives can realign power and mitigate the influence of corporate and special interest money in areas spanning from local elections to movement building.  Emerging coalition based efforts are also galvanizing further momentum, allowing for greater collaboration at the intersections of issue organizing and structural reform. Join us for an overview of the current money in politics landscape, and a discussion about how state advocates are building a more cohesive movement by integrating money in politics reforms with organizing efforts around issues like paid sick leave, funding for education, and voting rights.

Explore:
  • How state level organizing both fuels and is fueled by national advocacy such as HR 1 and the Green New Deal

Presenters

  • Eduardo Sainz, Arizona State Director, Mi Familia Vota

  • Estevan Muñoz-Howard (Moderator), Program Officer, Piper Fund
