BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: This coming Thursday at 7pm Eastern, the PCCC is proud to host Attica Scott as our next guest on the PCCC Meet The Candidates Zoom series.
Attica Scott has battled Mitch McConnell in Kentucky for years as an organizer, activist, and state legislator. Now, she is running for a newly open, urban, democratic-leaning congressional seat in 2022 to bring the fight to McConnell in DC.
Attica’s personal story is compelling. Lots of folks can relate. She knows hardship. Her mother struggled with addiction and died from an overdose when she was 16. Her father was trapped in the cycle of incarceration. She grew up in poverty and worked at Subway to put herself through college.
She knows the feeling of powerlessness at the hands of corporations. Walking to the school bus in a neighborhood where the cars were covered in soot from nearby chemical factories. While elected officials ignored concerns about toxic emissions, her uncle -- a veteran and union member -- developed multiple forms of cancers before he died.
Can you donate $3 to Attica Scott's campaign and our work electing progressives across the country?
