Congressman Jim Clyburn Sends Letter Supporting Jaime Harrison for Chair of Democratic National Committee

 

COLUMBIA, SC—Congressman Jim Clyburn (D-SC) sent a letter this week in support of Jaime Harrison for Chair of the Democratic National Committee. In his letter, Clyburn praised Harrison’s experience and skill connecting with and advocating for a diverse group of people.

“We need someone who understands, appreciates, and values the diversity of our party,” said Clyburn. “Jaime Harrison is pitch-perfect for the job.”

“Our next DNC chair must work full-time to rebuild our party.  The Chair must bridge the divide between those who navigate our political corridors and those who work hard, play by the rules, and want little more than to care for their families and to create stability and opportunity for their children and grandchildren.  I know from over 20 years of experiences with Jaime that he is the right person for the job.  His unrelenting work ethic, keen intellect, collaborative spirit, and utmost integrity will serve our party well.  I commend him to you for your sincere consideration and, hopefully, strong support.”
