Jill joins me today to discuss getting involved and active in politics. She describes her early political experiences and how she became active and engaged with politics. She reveals the lessons she learned from running grassroots campaigns and knocking on the doors of thousands of Republicans. She also shares her thoughts and insights on the Republican messaging for the 2024 elections and what it would take to earn the votes of suburban women and people of color.
“I became politically active because I saw how so many decisions that impact our everyday lives happen through local and national laws, and a way to impact change is to get involved.” - Jill Homan
