The following details regarding the Nebraska delegation and congressional activities will be provided to the press and media.

WHAT: The staff of the Nebraska Democratic Party and the Nebraska Democratic Delegation will represent Nebraska at the Convención Nacional Democrática starting on Monday, August 19th until August 23rd.

On Sunday we will host a “Nebraskans in Chicago” reception.

The delegation will attend daily (Mon-Thurs) breakfast meetings with high-profile speakers such as Governor Gretchen Whitmer (MI) and Representative Jasmine Crockett (TX).

Our delegation represents a diverse representation from across the state: elected officials, workers, members of the LGBTQIA community, neighborhood activists, military veterans, ranchers, and students, to name a few.
