Daniel Lee
Former Culver City Mayor Daniel Lee became the first African-American Member of the Culver City Council in its over 100-year history in 2018 where he passed rent control, voted to close down the Inglewood oil field, began a reparations process, created a mobile crisis response team and worked to create permanent supportive housing. A veteran of the US Air Force and California Air National Guard, he currently works as Project Director at the James Lawson Institute. Daniel has a Master’s Degree in Social Welfare from UCLA and a Doctorate in Social Work from USC. He currently serves on the Board of Directors for Move to Amend, Democracy Unlimited, the Backbone Campaign, Mockingbird Incubator, Elected Officials Protecting America, and the advisory board for the ProRep Coalition working for proportional representation in California.
Jason Bayless
Jason Bayless is a lifelong social justice activist with over two decades of experience championing transformative change across animal rights, farmworker advocacy, and broader systemic struggles for justice. Recognized as a respected voice in the activist community, his work spans organizing, education, and coalition-building efforts aimed at dismantling oppressive systems and fostering liberation.
A staunch advocate for animal rights, Bayless co-created PETA2, PETA’s youth division, which mobilized young people to take action against animal abuse in industries ranging from entertainment to agriculture. His commitment to equity extends to farmworker families, where he served as President of the Board of Directors for the Center for Farmworker Families, collaborating with agricultural workers to amplify their voices and address systemic inequities.
Bayless also serves on the National Board of Move to Amend, advancing the fight against corporate personhood and the undue influence of money in politics.
As the founder of A Radical Guide, Bayless has created a global platform highlighting the history and ongoing work of radical movements. Through this initiative, he connects activists and organizers, facilitates workshops, and raises critical funds to support resistance movements and community-driven projects worldwide. A Radical Guide embodies his vision of collective liberation by showcasing transformative efforts while offering practical resources for activists building alternatives to oppression.
Jason Bayless’s tireless commitment to justice and his strategic leadership reflect a deep understanding of the interconnected struggles for animal rights, worker justice, and grassroots democracy. His work continues to inspire and empower individuals and movements to imagine and create a more liberated, equitable world.

Keyan Bliss
Inspired to join Move to Amend by his brother’s participation within the Occupy movement and student power movement, Keyan previously served as executive producer for Move to Amend's online radio program Move to Amend Reports, and has served on Move to Amend's National Board of Directors before joining the full-time staff. He previously started as its Communications Coordinator in 2015 before serving as its Grassroots Director in 2017, providing support for Move to Amend's grassroots leaders and state networks.
Keyan is a graduate of Indiana University with a B.A. in political science. Alongside his work in the democracy movement, he is an abolitionist actively fighting for racial justice, police accountability, and decarceration within the Sacramento community. Keyan views the goal of ending corporate constitutional rights and money as protected speech to be a crucial first step towards leveling the playing field for all justice movements and creating lasting systemic change within US society. Once the “We the People” Amendment is adopted into the Constitution, he hopes to continue the work of constitutional renewal to include new bills of rights that expand the protection of civil liberties to all human beings without distinction.
Shelly Williams
Shelly Williams (she/her) is an organizer, parent, and trained social worker. All of these experiences have led her to the unshaking belief that as we do the work of dismantling systems that are harming us, we can -- and must -- also be doing the work to build the systems and the society we want. This includes systems of care, (such as those we see in mutual aid networks that have grown out of the COVID-era failures), as well as systems of democracy and how we make decisions together. Democracy Unlimited is being relaunched in the shape of that shared belief. In addition to serving on the Democracy Unlimited Board of Directors, Shelly also serves on the Move to Amend Advisory Board (after ten years as a National Co-Director), and in her local community of Sacramento she spends most of her extra bandwidth fighting alongside the unhoused community for land, dignity, rights and survival.
