Ex-Sen. Sanders LA moves to project of Arabella network

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Oct. 6, 2022

A former Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) staffer has moved to a dark-money-funded environmental group.

Camila Thorndike started this month as director of policy programs at Rewiring America, a nonprofit aimed at mitigating climate change through decarbonization. Rewiring America is a project of the Windward Fund, a left-wing environmental funding group that's a part of the Arabella Advisors dark-money network.

Thorndike was mostly recently a legislative assistant handling Sanders' energy and environment portfolio. Her work for the senator focused mainly on the Build Back Better Act and the Inflation Reduction Act.
