Progressive Coders Network #88

Closed BenGalewsky closed 7 years ago

Volunteer coders behind Bernie Sanders' 2016 campaign cemented the role of volunteer tech in politics

Hundreds of coders created online tools for his campaign, boosting the movement by engaging millions of people to vote, volunteer, and inform themselves about the issues.

We're building on that momentum and creating a sustainable network of volunteers: creating open-source tools for the progressive movement; helping progressive campaigns compete without needing millions of dollars in funding; enabling them to champion a platform centered in social and economic justice without big money's influence.

Feb 28, 2017 Special Meeting

We are fortunate to have Rapi Castillor, Executive Director of Prog Coders in town along with Preston Long-Lamoureux and Stephen Scapelliti in town. We will be holding a special break out group to talk about the work of Progressive Coders Network and opportunities to cooperate.
