  • Work closely with colleagues across relevant Lawyers' Committee units to help identify and pursue shared advocacy objectives.
  • Draft congressional testimony, talking points, reports, letters, comments on proposed administrative rules and regulations, and other materials for meetings, briefings, and other public speaking engagements on civil rights, technology, and privacy-related legislative, policy, and regulatory matters.
  • Plan and execute advocacy events, such as congressional briefings, panel discussions, advocacy days on Capitol Hill, and webinars to further advocacy goals.
  • Work with communications staff to coordinate a focused communications strategy and to elevate relevant legislative, administrative, and executive activity in the media.
  • Track and summarize legislation, regulations, and other policy developments using databases, as well as monitoring media, social media, and government websites.
  • Lead and participate in national coalition meetings focused on technology and privacy-related issues.
  • Provide policy briefings and support for the President & Executive Director and other senior staff, including drafting testimony and helping with preparation for other appearances before executive branch and legislative officials.
Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree and a minimum of at least four years of work experience relevant to this role, preferably working on federal policy.
  • Deep commitment to the advancement of racial justice and civil rights with experience working for a civil rights or racial justice organization preferred.
  • Experience with technology and civil rights issues, such as data privacy, algorithmic bias, online harassment, content moderation, anti-discrimination laws, Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, surveillance and biometric technologies, online voter suppression and disinformation, unfair and deceptive practice laws, and other similar issues.
  • Demonstrated experience working with and for communities of color.
  • Must be willing to register as a federal lobbyist.
  • Working knowledge of the federal legislative, regulatory, and policy process (experience as a Congressional staffer, in the White House, at a civil rights nonprofit, or at a federal or state agency is a plus).
  • Exceptional research, writing, and communication skills—such as being able to draft legislative proposals, comments to agencies, and talking points.
  • Strong analytical thinking and problem-solving skills—such as being able to analyze how a proposal will affect both the strategy and the policy of the organization's civil rights priorities.
  • Strong organizational skills with superb attention to detail—such as being able to track several congressional and agency developments and quickly turn around precisely written talking points.
  • Strong, creative, and curious intellect, and the ability to analyze issues and develop novel advocacy strategies.
  • Well-developed interpersonal skills, ability to build trust and credibility with partners, as well as Congressional and executive branch staff and officials.
  • Ability to synthesize information and to manage multiple priorities, take direction and guidance, and follow through and complete assignments, meeting often strict deadlines.
  • Ability to work independently as well as part of a team; receptive to instruction and guidance.
  • Ability to be flexible, responsive, and a team player to meet the needs of the organization.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office software and Internet research tools.
  • Willingness and ability to travel on a regular basis for meetings.
