Tate Hausman runs high-impact projects and campaigns for progressive organizations and candidates. He thinks government can be a force of good if it puts people before profits.

He has worked for two Congressional campaigns (John Hall, Donna Edwards), one gubernatorial (Arianna Huffington), and multiple state, municipal and issue campaigns.

In tandem with his campaign work, Tate consults for high-impact organizations like MoveOn, CREDO Mobile/Working Assets, the Drum Major Institute, Iraq and Afghanistan Vets of America, and the Working Families Party. He spent two years as Director of Strategy at Free Range Studios, where he wrote, produced and marketed viral video hits like The Meatrix and Store Wars. His career started at AlterNet.org, where as managing editor he helped transition the offline wire service into a dynamic online community.
