Laura Fine for Congress: Field Organizer

Laura Fine for Congress: Field Organizer

Based in Illinois's 9th Congressional District, Chicago

Full-Time, Non-Exempt, through Primary Election Day

State Senator Laura Fine is running for Congress to bring compassionate, pragmatic leadership to Washington. As Chair of the Illinois Senate Behavioral & Mental Health Committee, she has expanded access to mental-health care, strengthened consumer protections, defended reproductive rights, and championed environmental safeguards.

This is a community-centered campaign built on intentional communication and local leadership — and our organizing team is at the heart of it.

Field Organizers are the front line of the campaign's voter contact program. They will engage directly with voters, recruit and train volunteers, and build local networks to share Laura's vision across the district. Field Organizers will report to a Regional Field Director and work closely with fellow organizers to meet ambitious voter-contact and volunteer goals. This is an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on campaign experience in one of Illinois's most competitive congressional races.
