U.S. Rep. Dean Phillips (D-MN) has hired some of Bernie Sanders and Andrew Yang’s most notable advisers to help shape his progressive message.
Phillips tapped the Democratic firm New Partners as his primary strategic and media consultant. Led by Sanders’ 2016 campaign manager Jeff Weaver and former Yang adviser Heather Hargreaves, the firm boasts an impressive client list, including leaders in the progressive movement like Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-TX), and Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), among others.
Phillips’ campaign also named self-described “progressive grassroots organizer” Alex Hanna as political advisor. Hanna worked on every one of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ previous presidential campaigns and is currently the executive director of Our Revolution, Sanders’ political organization.
Phillips is currently the frontrunner in the race for Minnesota’s 3rd congressional district. His campaign announced that its focus will be on combating “economic inequality, tackling climate change, and reforming the political system itself”.
