Description
About Berniecrats of California:
Berniecrats of California formed in late 2016 to organize around the California ADEM elections that took place in January 2017. We partnered with Our Revolution, the Courage Campaign and Progressive Slate in California to take over 60% of the 1,100 seats!
Today we have 300+ members across the California including Activists, Delegates, Politicians and Organizers. Members must demonstrate and push for progressive values to be included. These members all currently organize in a semi-autonomous manner that is relevant to their local communities needs however at a state level we strategize on how best to pool resources and work in cohesion.
More recently the Berniecrats came together with other activist organizations in protesting President Trumps Travel Ban at LAX where over 3,000 people came out to shut down the airport.
Berniecrats of California is a 501 (c)(3) and Berniecrats of California Development Fund is the affiliate 501 (c)(4). We are also an Official Affiliate of Our Revolution.
Our board includes DNC and PDA members as well as social media gurus and founding members of national political activist organizations.
