He graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor’s degree in English and Studio Art from Georgetown University and has been awarded the MavPAC Future 40 Under 40 award.

Albert joins us today to discuss why diversity and inclusion is crucial in politics. We discuss why it’s important for our state legislatures to represent all Americans, across all walks of life, including the LGBTQIA2S+ community. We explain how imbalanced representation can impact our daily lives and how we can strike a balance between diversity, inclusion and social conservative values. We discuss why the GOP is struggling to connect with millennials and how we can get more millennials to vote for Republican candidates. We also discuss why we believe no American is entitled to “The American Dream” and why we believe the true meaning of empowering Americans is giving people the opportunity to be their best selves.

“You are not a party of universal values if all of your stakeholders look like 60-percent of the country and not 100-percent of the country.” - Albert Eisenberg

Women on the right need a safe space to discuss politics, policy, news, and ownership over the fact that it is ok to agree to disagree. It is our First Amendment right to free speech. Before we can even out the number of women in our local, state, & federal governments, we need to empower women to feel comfortable and confident discussing these and other topics.

My name is Jennifer. I’m a single mom of three girls living in Boston. I’m a lawyer with two political science degrees, and I have no problem talking politics with people who disagree with me.

I spent three years as the Chairman of the Massachusetts GOP and ran for the very liberal Boston City Council. I’m a frequent analyst on Newsmax, Fox News Radio, and Boston Media. As a Republican in a blue state, I know a few things about how to disagree agreeably.

Join me for fascinating conversations that engage and clarify every week. For more information and resources, visit Political Contessa.
