ABOUT SOPHIA CHITLIK

Sophia fights hard for the things she cares about.

When she worked in the Obama White House and at the Labor Department, Sophia learned that “people are policy.” She loves the people in our community, and that care is revealed in clear policy priorities that reflect who she is as a working mom, daughter of union members, and women’s health advocate. Sophia has been fighting for the things she believes in –like protecting a woman’s right to choose, abolishing the death penalty, and protecting public education – since before she could vote. Sophia fights hard, but she also collaborates deeply and respects people who don’t agree with her.

Sophia is a changemaker.
