Jeremy Feigenbaum | National Vice President | feigenbaumj@collegedems.com
Harvard Law School
Raised in Teaneck, New Jersey, Jeremy became interested in politics during his senior year of high school when he interned for his congressman, Rep. Steve Rothman, at his district office. He is a first year at Harvard Law School, and a graduate of Brown University, where he concentrated in political science.
Almost immediately upon arriving at Brown, from which he graduated in May, Jeremy became involved with the College Democrats. He was elected Speakers and Events Chair of the Brown Democrats in November of his freshman year. He went on to serve as President of his chapter, where he organized events such as “Better Know Your District” featuring U.S. Senators Jack Reed and Sheldon Whitehouse and fundraising socials such as “Barack Your Body.” He also helped to develop the Brown Democrats’ website and led efforts to build coalitions with other progressive groups on campus.
In the spring of 2009, Jeremy served as the co-host of the College Democrats of Rhode Island’s first convention, where students had the opportunity to meet their Democratic peers, local activists, and a wide array of elected officials. He continued to assist CDRI on convention planning and, at the second convention in 2010, was elected President of his state federation for the 2010-2011 year. As President, he helped coordinate youth efforts to support Democratic candidates for statewide and federal office in the midterm elections, and organized advocacy efforts in the spring.
As the CDA Programs Director during the 2010-2011 year, Jeremy executed a variety of programs, including, national Service Week, Dial4Dems efforts to support Democratic Senate candidates, and Stand With Students advocacy efforts to hold Congressional GOP leaders accountable. He looks forward to serving College Democrats as your Vice President, and working with Alejandra and the incredible new group of CDA officers.
