Students for a New American
Politics PAC will send students from campuses across
the country to work as full time grassroots organizers
on progressive congressional campaigns in summer 2006.
By providing candidates with fully trained,
enthusiastic, and cost-free organizers, we will help
provide the margin of victory in tight races. And by
placing talented students in positions of
responsibility within key campaigns, we will train and
inspire the next generation of political activists.
Students for a New American Politics PAC is dedicated
to providing scholarships for students who want to
work on progressive campaigns for the summer, giving
priority to students who have demonstrated financial
need. All of the students that SNAP PAC supports are
students who would not be able to participate fully in
progressive campaigns were it not for receiving a
summer scholarship.
On each campaign, SNAP PAC
participants will work with the lead field organizer
in developing and implementing the candidate's field
plan. SNAP PAC lead
organizers will maintain regular contact with program
participants to ensure their experiences are
productive, and to respond to any problems that may
arise over the course of the summer.
At the conclusion of the
program, SNAP PAC will provide participants with the
resources and support to stay involved in key races
through the end of the 2006 election cycle. SNAP PAC
will work with graduating students to help them
continue their involvement with their campaign through
November
