Hiring Campaign Finance Staff for 2020 Campaign
If you are looking to work for an establishment Democratic US Senate candidate, please stop reading this job posting. . .
But if you want to work for a candidate who is fully committed to supporting and advocating for the Green New Deal, Medicare for All, and Eliminating Student Debt, then please keep reading and apply!
Betsy Sweet has been fighting to protect working-class values in Maine's state budget for 37 years. She has organized for the Equal Rights Amendment, served as the Executive Director of the Maine's Women's Lobby, and then the Commissioner for Women under Governors Brennan and McKernan. She was a founding supporter of Equality Maine MLGPA. Betsy is also a sexual harassment prevention trainer for businesses, agencies, and schools.
