Current Resilience PAC Committees
EDUCATION & POLICY
Meets: Bi-weekly
The education and policy committee develops and delivers candidate and public education events and materials. In February 2021, over 100 candidates participated in the first round of “Resilience PAC Candidate Classes.”
COMMUNICATIONS & ENDORSEMENTS
Meets: Bi-weekly
The communications and endorsements committee manages the process of tracking, engaging with, evaluating, and recommending candidate endorsements to the full Resilience PAC membership. Over 160 candidates sought endorsement for the June 2021 elections. The committee designs and executes the communications strategy by developing and disseminating content to traditional media, purchased media, and on social media platforms. The committee helps to translate the PAC’s mission, values, platform, accomplishments and needs into messaging targeted at candidates and the general public.
TREASURER
Lizzie Hodges
The Treasurer manages compliance with city, state, and federal regulatory bodies, completes periodic disclosure filings with New York State Board of Elections and tax filings, and provides regular financial reporting to the PAC at monthly general membership meetings.
