Meet Ethan Fitzgerald


In focusing my fellowship with the outreach and advocacy team, I hope to gain valuable experience in organizing and activism. Having worked on political campaigns in the past, I’m excited to build on those skills at FairVote. I hope to advocate for electoral reform not just among elected officials and stakeholder organizations, but with everyday Americans too. Advancing any policy requires connecting with people across the political spectrum, making FairVote’s nonpartisan character an asset as I work to develop my communications skills.

Finally, I feel so fortunate to be doing this work in Washington. Though our electoral system may be broken, D.C. remains the center of politics and policy. Being surrounded by the intelligent and hardworking people that come here to work on big ideas and make a difference is an opportunity for growth in and of itself.
