Last week, the Cozen O'Connor Public Strategies team and a number of other Cozen O'Connor attorneys traveled to Chicago for the #DemocraticNationalConvention and nomination of Vice President Kamala Harris to the Presidential ticket. The team joined valued clients for a boat cruise along the Chicago River, met with elected officials from all over the country (including Pennsylvania state leaders Governor Josh Shapiro, Lieutenant Governor Austin Davis, and Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey), and offered their perspectives and impressions from the speeches during on-air interviews with NBC news and NY Channel 4 News. Thanks to all who joined us for a great week and to our clients for putting their faith in our team. #DNC #kamalaharris #joshshapiro #clientappreciation #election2024
