This year, we're honored to welcome Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell and Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar as our keynote speakers for the event, which will take place April 10th in Milwaukee.
Both have fought tirelessly for the American people and have been champions of Democratic causes at a local and national level. The event will also feature appearances by our Democratic leaders in Wisconsin, including Governor Jim Doyle, Senators Kohl and Feingold, members of our Congressional delegation, and our candidate for governor Tom Barrett.
We hope you can join us for what is sure to be a memorable event!
