Bernie Sanders is collaborating with Run for Something to empower young progressive candidates in public office. Following his Fighting Oligarchy tour, Sanders urges supporters to engage and run for positions in government. This partnership aims to recruit and train candidates with a strong emphasis on featuring young leaders who can advocate for the working class and necessary changes. Over 5,000 individuals have expressed their interest through his outreach, and the response reflects a surge in young political engagement and leadership as vital for future change.
I am writing to ask you to run for office. Yes, you, Sanders wrote last month in an email to supporters.
Young people aren't waiting for the change we need they're stepping up to be that change, Amanda Litman, the president of Run for Something, said.
We need to elect progressives at every level in this country who are prepared to side with the working class in America.
Run for Something, founded in the aftermath of Donald Trump's first election victory, helps recruit and support young progressive candidates.
