    On Friday I said Doug Jones needs to make sure the SENIOR positions on his staff look like the people who voted for him Jake Tapper asked him if he could commit Black voters put Doug Jones in office. 98% of Black women & 92% of Black men voted for himhttp://snpy.tv/2yLbU6e

        I agree with you completely. Dems taking a victory lap best settle down & work to EARN trust. Part of that is assembling a staff that looks like their constituents. When I awoke, the morning after his election, I tweeted the following - & I stand by it:https://twitter.com/RoseGardenerWI/status/940911400230313984 …

        Rose Gardener added,

        Good to wake up this morning, and see #RollDamnTide trending. I've only one thing to say to the Dems. Don't betray the opportunity AL just handed you. They weren't endorsing your "brand". They voted against Moore. Act like it. Use thus opportunity to EARN America's trust.

        One thing that may apply even more pressure is if you put out a call for applications. There are plenty of POC and women in AL who can serve on his staff. Can we make a good long list of them (with credentials)?

        I think it was disengenuous 4 him 2 talk n generalities when a specific demographic handed him an improbable victory.This doesn't look good.

        All of the States are watching... And are rooting for POC to be represented. You all earned it for sure. Here in CA, I a 50+ W woman am watching and will strongly suggest in tweet to him that he does. You did so much hard work and helped him win. He better reward you somehow.

        Just wrote that tweet to him. Get your resumes ready. Note resumes are different than they used to be. Ariel is good type face. Use key words in job description in your resume and sell self in resume like it is your personal marketing devise as it is. Good luck to you all!

        Leadership of @TheDemocrats needs to lean on #Jones and every other member of Congress to make sure staff reflects the people who vote for them and whom they hope to represent. This is your #farmteam that you're creating, Dems' future leaders. You don't want it to be #GOPWhite.

        Time will tell. I hope he follows through. And...Wow. Shaun, almost daily you (and other key influencers) prove that activism, holding people accountable can make a powerful difference. Thank you for lighting the way.
