Jen Rubin’s Green Room
Getting Involved with Swing Left and Yasmin Radjy
May 22, 2024
In This Episode:
Jen Rubin talks with Yasmin Radjy, executive director of Swing Left, an organization that aims to channel resources to the most impactful elections to ensure Democrats have the balance of power. Swing Left believes that without Democratic control, nuanced policy disagreements are irrelevant because the government will be co-opted by extremists. They prioritize grassroots efforts, such as door-knocking and phone banking, to engage voters and persuade them to support Democratic candidates.
Swing Left encourages individuals to get involved by signing up on their website and contributing their time or money to support competitive races.
