“Nina Turner brings to our islands national experience and insight on resisting the regressive political tide, unifying around issues, and organizing communities to build an equalizing and transformative grassroots movement to advance the public interest and revitalize our democracy” said Democratic State Party Chair Tim Vandeveer.

Turner is the president of Our Revolution, a member of the Democratic National Committee Unity Reform Commission, and a Founding Fellow of the Sanders Institute. A champion for progressive causes such as labor, women’s reproductive health, voting rights, and the eradication of wealth and income inequality, Turner forms deep connections with people from all walks of life.

Turner will visit Hawai‘i Island, O‘ahu, Maui and Kaua‘i and to share and connect with island communities.
