Shua Sanchez

Hello Fellow 43rd Dems!

My name is Shua Sanchez, and to continue the great work we have done recruiting PCOs and getting out the vote, I am announcing a run for PCO Recruitment Vice Chair!

As an experienced field organizer from several Democratic campaigns across the country, I believe I will be effective at PCO recruitment. My key goal as PCO Recruitment Vice Chair is to build Obama-style neighborhood teams throughout our LD, so we can effectively mobilize progressives for events in the city and GOTV during elections.

I plan to share with the 43rd community the skills I’ve built in organizing, both on the campaign trail and as a union organizer with UAW4121, where I work with other academic researchers and TAs to build collective power.

As a PhD candidate at UW, I conduct clean energy research while teaching and mentoring students. UW is the largest major employer in the 43rd — my plan is to be a liaison between our LD and the UW community. If interested, you can learn more about me and my work from this recent student interview, here: https://tinyurl.com/y8x832wc.

Finally, I have helped develop the platform for 43rdforward.com and am excited to work with everyone in the LD! I am asking for your support at reorg on January 15, so please feel free to ask any questions about me, my research, or my candidacy in the comments section below. Thank you!
