Maryland advocates are gathering virtually for the launch of this new Political Action Committee.
Progressive Maryland is excited to announce the launch of the New Era PAC, part of the New Era Project, with a virtual launch event on Saturday, May 1st. The goal of the New Era PAC is to empower progressive leaders across the state and build a progressive slate to transform Maryland politics. The New Era Project and PAC will train and fund the campaigns of bold, revolutionary candidates and campaign leaders who are dedicated to a multitude of progressive issues such as police accountability, criminal justice reform, environmental justice, and healthcare for all. The style of “play-it-safe” politics that has been the status quo for Democrats in Maryland and across the country is obsolete for the new age we are entering so we are on a mission to elect progressive leadership for this new era.
The Virtual Launch Event is open to the public and can be accessed by donating to the ActBlue link for the details to tune in to the event. We invite everyone to join us, along with 2018 Maryland Gubernatorial nominee Ben Jealous, progressive champions State Senator Jill P. Carter and Del. Gabriel Acevero, and hundreds of progressive activists from across the state, as we launch this bold, new project that will work to change the political status quo. During the event, we’ll hear from progressive leaders and discuss the need for a new generation to rise up and fight for the policies that put working people at the center of our economy and correct centuries of racial injustice and exploitation.
