New Post: @KamalaHarris to hold "Camp Kamala" youth organizing trainings at five Iowa college campuses next month before students head off for the summer #IACaucus
Senator Kamala Harris is making sure they get a jump start on organizing Iowas college students before they head off campus after spring semester ends. Her Iowa campaign is announcing today five Camp Kamala youth organizing training sessions, where students will learn about how to organize their communities, how the Iowa Caucus works, and what Harris would do for young Americans as president.
The trainings will be held at the University of Iowa, Iowa State University, Drake University, the University of Northern Iowa, and DMACC. Theyre scheduled between April 16 and 18. Students, whether theyre currently supporting Harris or not, can sign up on the Harris website. (Interested students can apply for the training sessions up through April 13.)
Students and young people in Iowa are going to play a critical organizing role in the caucuses, Harris said in a statement. I hope youll join our team in April to learn more about the campaign and how to get involved.
Its especially important for students who are in college right now, she told Starting Line. Some of us were in college during the 2016 primaries, but most of us were active in the 2018 election. If it shows anything about young people, its that theyre ready to leverage their power as voters.
