DCCC Chairman Ben Ray Luján announced today the DCCC’s Member leadership on Finance and Mobilization to carry the Committee through the 2016 election cycle. Representative Chris Van Hollen leads as National Finance Chair and Assistant Democratic Leader Jim Clyburn leads as National Mobilization Chair. Van Hollen is a former Chair of the DCCC and current Ranking Member on the House Budget Committee.
- Chairman Luján’s Finance Team headed by Van Hollen includes a Business Council, and outreach Councils for New Americas, Tribes, Labor, Women, LGBT, Defense Industry, and the newly elected Members.
- Lujan’s Outreach team headed by Clyburn includes Congressional Black Caucus Outreach, Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus Outreach, and Congressional Hispanic Caucus Outreach.
“Our leadership team’s wealth of experience and diversity showcases the best of what Democrats have to offer, and their combined expertise will help lead us to a successful 2016 cycle,” said Chairman Luján. “Democrats are already on offense drawing a contrast on middle class economics and building on our state-of-the-art voter outreach, and will continue to fight against Republicans’ flawed priorities. I’m glad to be joined by a leadership team that represents Americans from coast-to-coast, and we will continue to broaden our fight for middle class families everywhere.”
