If you love to aggressively lobby for, refine and implement those solutions, and engage grassroots activists in tackling these issues strategically - please apply post haste. The Trump administration fired the nation's election cybersecurity staff, is withholding election security funding from states, and is threatening to prosecute election officials and seize voting machines.

Will you lead us to our next raft of victories? Our futures depend on it. Public Citizen's Democracy Campaign works to protect and build a stronger democracy in the United States. Democracy and the rule of law in the United States is under systematic attack by the Trump administration.

Supporting federal efforts to protect election officials, funding, etc. Responding to a rapidly changing environment to prioritize and address the most pressing threats to democratic elections in the United States, expect shifts in strategy will be needed. QUALIFICATIONS: Five or more years of experience winning campaigns, coalition management, organizing, policy, or advocacy experience.
