In Georgia, Color Of Change PAC Endorses Bee Nguyen for Secretary of State

Color Of Change PAC ramping up Black voter mobilization efforts to elect progressive candidates across 2022 midterms

GEORGIA — Color Of Change PAC, the political action committee of the nation’s largest online racial justice group, endorsed Bee Nguyen for Secretary of State of Georgia. 

“Black communities in Georgia deserve a Secretary of State who will fight for a fair and free democracy, and that is why Color Of Change PAC is proud to endorse Bee Nguyen,” said Color Of Change PAC Spokesperson Rashad Robinson. “Not only did Nguyen defend the accuracy of Georgia’s elections in 2020 and overturn the ‘exact match’ voter registration law, but she has been a tireless advocate for public education and criminal justice reform. Especially as state legislatures in Georgia work overtime to suppress Black votes, it’s critical to elect leaders like Nguyen who will stand in the trenches with us as we empower Black communities in Georgia and nationwide.”  

Since 2016, Color Of Change PAC has mobilized hundreds of thousands of Black voters across the country, endorsing candidates who offer plans to help move Black people forward. As a voting rights expert and founder of a small business, Nguyen’s platform includes mitigating election misinformation,  investing in training and resources for election boards and strengthening consumer projections.   

Color Of Change PAC plans to support Nguyen by building enthusiasm and mobilizing voters who are often left out. One of the first-ever political organizing groups to figure out how to reach and engage Black voters and its members online, Color Of Change PAC has ramped up its digital tactics, and will host a variety of virtual events like Black Joy Socials, text and phone banking, virtual squad meetings and town halls in response to the limitations COVID-19 has put on in-person advocacy and voter engagement. The organization also plans to send direct mail, launch GOTV email and SMS broadcasts, and deploy digital ads to reach and mobilize voters ahead of the midterm elections.
