The national conventions of both Republican and Democratic Parties usually do not gain widespread national and international attention. This year it is different. The GOP already had its convention in Wisconsin in July and officially nominated Donald J. Trump and J. D. Vance for U. S. President and U.S. Vice President. In August, Democratic Party delegates will assembly in Chicago to nominate their candidates. How they will deal with current challenges? Join us for a discussion with those who will take part in the Democratic Party Convention in person. Jason Altmire is a former Democratic congressman representing Pensylvania‘s 4th District who is also an author of Dead Center: How Political Polarization Divided America and What We Can Do About It. He will be joined by Rodney Davis who is a former member of the U.S. Congress from Illinois and managing director at Cozen O’Connor Public Strategies, providing strategic counsel to the firm’s government relations clients. Known for his record of civility and bipartisanship, Davis has legislative expertise in agriculture, commodity exchanges, transportation, and infrastructure.
