Reid's Chief Of Staff Departs For ONE Campaign
Susan McCue, chief of staff for incoming majority leader Harry Reid, will leave to become the CEO of the the ONE campaign, an AIDS relief and anti-poverty group.
ONE features ordinary Americans and luminaries who've banded together to "make poverty history" and fight AIDS. The group boasts 2.4 million members and hosted 600 activist house parties during the midterms.
Yes, it's the Bono thingie.
ONE gets its name from getting ONE percent of Americans to increase by ONE percent the "ONE percent of the federal budget is currently marked for fighting AIDS and poverty around the world."
Republicans like Jack Oliver and Mark McKinnon, along with Democrats like Mike McCurry (and basically, all of Hollywood) count themselves as members.
From the ONE release:
“Susan has made getting results her calling card on Capitol Hill and now she’ll bring that experience to building a historic and bipartisan campaign,” said ONE Board Member and Republican strategist Jack Oliver. “The ONE Campaign, and the fight against global AIDS and extreme poverty, has gained an incredible leader and advocate."
