The head of a left-wing dark money group that the GOP has taken aim at in recent years over its efforts to pack the Supreme Court is slated to step down this fall, he announced on Thursday.
Demand Justice, which as a 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization does not have to disclose its donors, has established itself as an influential Democratic-linked activist hub trying to radically upend the federal judiciary. Brian Fallon, its executive director who was national press secretary for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, informed Demand Justice’s board of directors in a letter this week that he will help the group “identify a successor and ensure a seamless transition.”
“And as we have discussed, I intend to remain close to the organization on an ongoing basis through my service on the boards of both entities, and via my role as President of the PAC,” Fallon wrote in the letter to Demand Justice and its charity arm, Demand Justice Initiative. The super PAC affiliated with Demand Justice, which supports Democratic candidates, launched in 2020.
