Last week President Barack Obama’s Organizing for America came to Pahrump. The OFA listening tour drew about 20 Democrats in Pahrump.
Jennifer Lopez, Nevada State Director for Organizing for America said “First and foremost, our listening tour is here to serve Nevada, to help bring our community together. As we all know, community mattered very much to the President when he was running for the campaign and we wanted to make sure that we continued that community outreach.”
“We worked very hard to elect a Democratic President who would speak on behalf of all of us. That was our first task. That was Organizing for America 1.0. Organizing for America 2.0 is the next step, the next generation. It’s the teachers edition that goes along with Barrack Obama’s agenda and gives us and gives you the tools to bring the President’s agenda from the White house into your neighborhood, into your community and into your life,” stated Sam Lieberman, Nevada State Democratic Chairman for the Nevada Democratic Party.
“Over the next year, we’re going to be focusing on issue organizing rather than specifically focusing on candidates work. We will be hiring staff in all fifty states by the end of the year. We will be recruiting volunteer organizers to cover the states and rebuilding the neighborhood teams,” said Evan Sutton, Nevada Field Director for Organizing for America.
