Maya Harris:

Maya L. Harris (born in 1967) is an American lawyer and public policy advocate. She was appointed to be one of three senior policy advisers to lead the development of an agenda for Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign.[1] She was formerly a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress.[2] From 2008 until she took her current position, she was Vice President for Democracy, Rights and Justice at the Ford Foundation. Prior to joining the Ford Foundation, she served as the Executive Director of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Northern California.[3][4] Before joining the ACLU, the former law school dean (Lincoln Law School of San Jose) was a Senior Associate at PolicyLink. She has authored two publications which include a report highlighting community-centered policing practices nationwide and an advocacy manual for police reform.



Ann O'Leary:

Ann M. O'Leary is a lawyer, nonprofit leader, and a senior policy advisor in Hillary Clinton's 2016 Presidential Campaign.[1] O'Leary is a nationally recognized expert in developing polices that promote early childhood education and labor protections for working families. Until April 2015, she was vice president and director of the Children and Families program at Next Generation[2] and a senior fellow with the Center for American Progress. At Next Generation she was the founding director of Too Small to Fail, a national initiative aimed at closing the "word gap" in vocabulary development in young children, which leads to lifelong disparities in education and health. Along with Christopher Edley, she is a cofounder of the Opportunity Institute, a nonprofit startup dedicated to advancing opportunities for children and families. Previously, O'Leary served as founding executive director of the University of California, Berkeley, Law School's Center on Health, Economic & Family Security Program.


Jake Sullivan:

Jacob Jeremiah "Jake" Sullivan (born November 28, 1976) is an American policymaker and the top foreign policy advisor to Hillary Clinton's 2016 election campaign.[1] He is widely rumored to be a front-runner for the position of U.S. National Security Advisor under a potential Hillary Clinton administration, should she be elected president in 2016.[2]

Sullivan is also a senior advisor to the U.S. government for the Iran nuclear negotiations and a visiting professor at Yale Law School.[3]

Prior to teaching at Yale, Sullivan was Deputy Assistant to the U.S. President Barack Obama and National Security Advisor to U.S. Vice President Joe Biden.[4] He also served as the Director of Policy Planning at the U.S. Department of State, and as Deputy Chief of Staff to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. He was deputy policy director on Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential primary campaign, and a member of the debate preparation team for Barack Obama's general election campaign.
