Field Organizers needed in highly competitive 2019 VA State Senate Race
Debra Rodman's Campaign for Virginia's 12th State Senate District is seeking passionate and energetic Field Organizers. Debra is a progressive champion who was elected to the House of Delegates in 2017 through grit and grassroots hard work – and now she's running for State Senate to do more good for more people. Organizers will play an invaluable role in engaging the community, flipping the critical 12th district from red to blue, and winning a democratic majority in the Virginia State Legislature.
Applicants should have a demonstrated commitment to progressive values, and the internal drive to put in the necessary work to win (will involve evenings and weekends, particularly closer to Election Day). Read more about Debra at www.debrarodman.com/meet-debra.
