John Delaney Ramps Up Presidential Campaign with Key Staff Hire and End of Month Swing in Iowa

WASHINGTON – Today, Congressman John K. Delaney’s Presidential campaign announced the hiring of Monica Biddix as their Iowa Communications Director.

“Team Delaney is pleased to welcome Monica to our campaign,” said John Davis, Senior Advisor. “As one of the best in the business, she brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in navigating the Iowa political landscape and a tireless work ethic to match. As our campaign digs its heels into Iowa in the coming months, we know we can trust Monica to spread our message to a broad audience across the state.”

Biddix brings nearly a decade of political experience, primarily in Iowa, that includes working with the Iowa Legislature, spearheading issue advocacy campaigns and organizing around the Iowa Caucuses. After managing state legislative races in both the Iowa Senate and the Iowa House, Biddix served as Communications Director for Progress Iowa and the Iowa Democratic Party. Most recently, Biddix served as the campaign manager for Dr. Andy McGuire’s gubernatorial campaign. In addition to her work in Iowa, Monica has worked across the nation in statewide, congressional and municipal elections.

“I am very excited to join Team Delaney, and be part of a campaign that wants to unify our country moving forward,” said Monica Biddix. “I believe Iowans and Americans are tired of partisan bickering and are ready for a leader with long-term solutions and real plans for the future. As President, John Delaney is ready to bring together a nation that is deeply divided and focus on getting things done and promoting the common good.”

Next week, Delaney’s sixth television ad will air in Iowa in which he shares his grandfather’s immigration story and calls for a “shared humanity.” The spot titled, “A Shared Humanity” will run in the Des Moines and Cedar Rapids markets and is the first of a multi-ad, summer-long Iowa television buy. Delaney is scheduled to make campaign stops in 14 counties at the end of this month. This will be Delaney’s 12th trip to Iowa since he announced his candidacy for President last year.

Delaney to Air New Television Ad in DC and Iowa Calling for Shared Humanity
Spot highlights Delaney’s grandfather, who was detained upon arriving in the US in 1923

WASHINGTON – Congressman John K. Delaney (MD-6), the first declared Democratic candidate for President, will air a new ad Thursday that shares his grandfather’s immigration story and calls for a spirit of “shared humanity.” The spot, titled “A Shared Humanity” will air during MSNBC’s Morning Joe in the D.C. market on Thursday and will run in the Des Moines and Cedar Rapids markets in Iowa starting next week. The several hundred-thousand dollar buy for this ad is the first of a multi-ad, summer-long Iowa television buy. This will be Delaney’s sixth television ad to air in Iowa since February.

The ad can be viewed online here, transcript below.

The ad’s script:

Delaney:

One of my grandfathers came to this country when he was a little boy in 1923

with his brothers and sisters,

but he’s detained

because he has one arm.

His family got an appeal and the judge walks in

and my grandfather saw that the judge had one arm,

and he used to tell this story around the Thanksgiving table,
“That’s when I knew I would be an American.”

Voice over:

95 years ago an act of shared humanity kept a family together.

If it seems like we’ve lost that lately,

maybe it’s time to get it back.

Democratic National Committee will hold the Democratic National Convention from July 13 to July 16, 2020

DNC Announces 2020 Convention Dates

DNC Chair Tom Perez announced today that the Democratic National Committee will hold the Democratic National Convention from July 13 to July 16, 2020.

The DNC will hold its convention ahead of the Summer Olympics, which begin on July 24, 2020, allowing the Democratic nominee maximum exposure heading into the fall.

The dates chosen will put the Party’s nominee in the strongest position possible heading into the general election by allowing the nominee more time to use general elections funds and travel across the country to discuss the issues that matter most to voters. DNC leadership consulted with party leaders, previous campaigns, and rank and file Democrats in making this decision.

“The Democratic Party is committed to organizing everywhere, and holding the convention in mid-July allows us to continue our work doing exactly that,” said DNC Chair Tom Perez. “My priority is to ensure that the 2020 nominating process is the most open, fair, transparent and inclusive in our party's history. That is exactly why the DNC has started this process early and before we have a full slate of candidates running for president. This will not only allow for a unified party, but will ensure that our nominee is in the strongest position to take on Donald Trump or whoever the Republican nominee may be.”

The DNC will conduct host site surveys over the next few months in order to determine the best location to hold the Democratic National Convention. Further details will be provided at a later date.
