More than 65 current and former Democratic US senators, members of the US House, governors, mayors and legislators from a dozen Southern states have sent a letter to President Joe Biden and Democratic National Committee Chair Jaime Harrison, urging them to select Atlanta as the host city for the 2024 Democratic National Convention. The letter argues that the choice would solidify the party's gains in Georgia and demonstrate commitment to the entire region, as well as thank the people of Georgia for their support in the 2020 election.
