Has everyone recovered from the DNC yet? We’re officially in the sprint to Election Day, but we can’t look forward without taking a moment to reflect on last week and the incredible energy we’re bringing back home.

We are extremely proud of our Assemble clients past and present who helped bring the convention to life. It’s always an honor to stand with our partners and celebrate everything we’ve accomplished….especially when that celebration is a Communities United and Freedom for the People concert with DJ Cassidy, Shaggy, and Wyclef Jean.

We’re ready to win big this November. Are you with us?
