TODAY'S SECOND GUEST: Eric Eisenhammer

ERIC EISENHAMMER     

 

About Eric

Eric is talented in grassroots campaigns and social network and internet communications. Eric serves as a full-time staff member for the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association where he performs community outreach, web marketing and policy research.

Over the course of the 18 months preceding the November 2010 election, Eric worked as a consultant on the Proposition 23 campaign where he played a main role in the effort’s development from its conceptualization by Assemblyman Dan Logue onward to Election Day. Over the course of that time, he gave speeches to business and activist groups up and down California, worked on the campaign’s volunteer signature gathering operation and created a high traffic campaign website as well as the second-largest Facebook pages of any of that election’s initiative proponents. At the conclusion of the campaign, he created a permanent nonprofit organization to advocate on issues of affordable energy and economic growth.

For the May 2009 special election, Eric served as point person for the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association’s campaign opposing Proposition 1A where he built a social networking presence three times larger than proponents in an opposition effort that prevailed despite being outspent by a large margin.

Eric first came to Sacramento to serve as a Fellow for Senator Bob Dutton after interning for then-Senator Tom McClintock where he performed constituent services and first began his involvement in grassroots campaigns.
