ATLANTA, GA (TIP): Last weekend, U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff, Mayor of Cincinnati Aftab Pureval, actor, and activist BD Wong, U.S. Representative Jim Clyburn, U.S. Representative Wiley Nickel, and local leaders joined Team Harris-Walz and the Democratic Party of Georgia for a Weekend of Action to mobilize voters in the state around electing Vice President Harris, Governor Walz, and Democrats. Events included a canvass launch and roundtable in South Georgia with U.S. Representative Wiley Nickel, a Fulton County Democrats dinner with U.S. Representative Jim Clyburn, and a canvass launch and small business block party in metro Atlanta to energize Georgia’s fast-growing AANHPI community.
