The Federal Strategy · Section 10

There Are Virgin Islanders in Every State. Together, We Are a Force.

Our people are everywhere, in Atlanta, New York, Miami, and beyond. Hundreds of thousands of Virgin Islanders and their families live across the mainland, each one a voter in a congressional district that does cast the final vote. That is not a loss. It is untapped political power. By organizing the diaspora, we turn Virgin Islanders nationwide into advocates who can press their own representatives to fight for our territory.

Janelle's Federal Strategy

Turning the Diaspora Into a National Force

• Build a coordinated national network of Virgin Islanders across the mainland.
• Activate the diaspora to advocate within their own congressional districts.
• Amplify our voice through partnerships and national platforms.
• Connect diaspora talent and resources back home to the territory.
• Make Virgin Islanders nationwide a recognized political constituency.
