The Presidential Elections Task Force Meeting in Chicago, Illinois.
A bipartisan task force of city leaders appointed by NLC Past President Ralph Becker has worked throughout 2015 to forge a platform focusing on the three priorities most important to cities — the economy, public safety and infrastructure investment. During the 2016 presidential election cycle, NLC and city leaders around the nation are using this platform to engage with the presumptive nominees of both parties to ensure they address the issues that matter to Americans.
