Californians deserve leaders who will work to create an equitable and opportunity-filled state. Founded in 2022, Build Black Better PAC will build Black political power in California by identifying, supporting, and electing state legislative and constitutional candidates who support the Build Black Better principles concerning the Black community:

• Improving educational opportunities and performance

• Economic empowerment

• Small business development

• Improvement of health outcomes and high mortality rates 

 

In order to see that the needs of our community are met, California needs more lawmakers committed to these principles and with an avalanche of open seats occurring in 2024 due to term limits, now is the time for an aggressive strategy to elect more Black legislators and those who support our cause to the California Senate and Assembly.

 

Strategy:

Build Black Better will focus on electing pro-Black, Black candidates for California State Assembly and Senate from legislative districts with 10 percent or more Black Citizen Voting Age Population (CVAP). Build Black Better PAC will also consider supporting candidates who are Black and are running in districts with less than 10 percent Black CVAP when appropriate.

Build Black Better PAC seeks to max out in the Assembly and Senate races in which it participates and to build long-term relationships with candidates who are endorsed and supported by the PAC. We will make both Primary and General Election contributions in 2024.
