Greetings:
-- I am writing as a Democratic campaign operative that has worked in Dem politics for nearly a decade. I am also writing as a Black man that struggled to initially make it into political work because of the social and economic challenges that many people like me face.
My aim here is to encourage you all, to the extent possible, to please start requiring people posting jobs to list a salary range. Not posting that or stating that "pay is commensurate with experience" or anything of the like is the opposite of progressive. If we are truly committed to making our work spaces, our party and our candidates more racially and ethnically diverse, requiring salary ranges in job postings is a small but very important step in doing that.
Many Black people and people of color juggle many responsibilities. We do not have the luxury of wasting time applying to a job only to find out it doesn't fit our financial needs. I believe this to be a small request that will truly help these job postings live up to what they say they believe, which is the actual practice of being progressive and not just saying that they are.
Thank you for taking this into consideration.
