Campaign Manager
Jack Perry - Democrat for Congress
Description
Congressional race for Connecticut’s 1st Congressional District seeks talented, hard-working, and organized Campaign Manager for the 2026 cycle.
Candidate
Jack Perry is a different kind of Democrat: A working-class family man and successful businessman in his 30s, Jack entered the workforce at a young age and founded his own successful trash hauling & recycling company in the midst of the Great Recession and built it to more than 50 employees. He has already committed to his campaign with a seed funding of $500k, and as a Southington Town Council member with a history of taking on MAGA Republicans is ready to work hard to win a multi-way congressional primary.
