Movement Politics Taskforce
Since 2016 Reclaim Philadelphia members and volunteers have made over 400,000 attempts to reach voters during Primary and General elections, not including a hundred thousand more through campaigns for Rick Krajewski and Nikil Saval in 2020.
Electoral politics has historically been a disenfranchising experience, with politicians serving the powerful few rather than Philadelphia’s working class, multi-racial majority.
Yet electoral power can shift narratives, win policies that directly impact our lives for the better and break down barriers to political power.
We have a lot of work to do and a lot of movement candidates to elect. Join the Movement politics taskforce and be part of it!
In 2024 we are recommitting to basebuilding and leadership development through our Movement Politics. With important elections in April and November, we want to build the base that can win big for communities!
