• Why Democrats must win in 2024

QUALIFICATIONS:

• A strong commitment to progressive politics
• Excellent writing and/or multimedia skills (We are also looking for video journalists, cartoonists, satirists, and more so feel free to apply for these roles too!)
• A desire to be part of a startup political media company determined to improve the conditions of this country
