Rights for ALL at the Caucuses
ACLU
Wednesday, 22 Jan 2020 at 7:00 pm – Sun Room, Memorial Union
Ari Fleisig is a National Organizing Specialist for the state of Iowa with the ACLU. She is currently working on the Rights for All campaign, to shape the national conversation of the 2020 presidential race around voting rights, ending mass incarceration, immigrants’ rights, and reproductive rights. Prior to joining the ACLU, Ari served as a Regional Field Director for Nevadans for a Clean Energy Future, as Campaign manager on a Virginia state legislative race, and as a communications and organizing consultant for Stand Up to ALEC. Ari first became inspired to organize as a college student, where she experienced and contributed to building power through collective action.
