As a national security leader, Nate understands the importance of planning for the long game. He proposes a transformative 56-50 plan—engaging all 50 states, 5 territories, and D.C., with a 50-year vision to rebuild the party from the grassroots up.  This approach mirrors the GOP’s long-term strategy that has yielded significant victories, including overturning reproductive rights, and deconstructing FDR’s New Deal over the last half-century.

Nate knows the Democratic Party’s strength lies in its diversity. He will integrate efforts to engage rural communities, working families, and overlooked voters into the very fabric of the DNC, and work together to craft a unifying socioeconomic message that resonates across demographics.

Nate’s early years organizing workers taught him that real change happens when we empower people.  He knows how to connect with the working families, rural communities, and Labor allies—not with platitudes, but with tangible support.
