Thanks to progress made by President Joe Biden and Democrats at the state and local level, Chicago is experiencing a renaissance.

The city skyline behind the United Center on Chicago’s West Side on March 5, 2024. The Democratic National Convention will be held at the United Center in the summer. As Democrats across the country continue to make their voices heard in support of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, the focus of this year’s election is quickly turning to Chicago as we prepare to welcome thousands of delegates, volunteers and elected officials for this summer’s convention.

Together, as a city, we have the opportunity to showcase the tangible benefits of the Biden-Harris administration’s policies firsthand. Thanks to progress made by Biden and Democrats at the state and local level, Chicago is experiencing a renaissance marked by a revitalized manufacturing sector that is driving economic growth and opportunity.

We also know that conventions can be logistical nightmares for delegates who are unable to secure lodging within city limits — but that will not be the case this summer. With a wide array of accommodations available downtown, delegates from across the country will feel right at home in our vibrant city and won’t have to travel more than a few miles to get from event to event.

So, too, is the Republican Party to blame for the proliferation of guns in this country and the war on drugs that criminalized and jailed Black and brown Americans for decades, reinforcing the cycle of poverty, crime and disinvestment. Illinois has, after decades, eliminated cash bail and banned assault-style weapons — victories that over time will help communities recover and rebuild from the disastrous Republican policies of the past.
