Episode Synopsis

I’ve been on the road in Southwest swing states for almost a month! I’ve been lucky enough to meet some amazing local and state candidates who are just real people who are working hard and caring for their communities. It has been refreshing to find when the pundits want us to believe they’re all crooked!I was lucky enough to have a casual sit-down conversation with Dallas Harris, Nevada State Senator, at her office at the Nevada Nevada Legislature building. You can find our awesome tees on YouTube if you want to watch the interview. In our 20-minute chat, we covered:What Dallas Harris has already done for Nevadans and what she hopes to do in her next termHow she’s dealt with GOP government inaction firsthand to support her communityWhy down-ballot races are so crucial for our daily livesThe case for Millennials and Gen Z to go vote!Addressing the economic angst in the country and the Democrat’s closing economic messageThe amazing organizations and support networks for women, people of color, and queer folks running for officeAbout Dallas HarrisVisit the Dallas Harris websiteDonate to Dallas HarrisAbout The Roots of Change AgencySubscribe to the roots of change newsletterUpgrade for members-only podcasts and resourcesWe are 100% reader supported, consider donating to support our work.Explore the roots of change agency Hosted on Acast.
