Dem. Cong. Campaign Chair Rep. Chris Van Hollen at National Press Club Newsmaker News Conf. Fri., Aug. 27 10am
TO UPDATE 2010 ELECTION ISSUES
WASHINGTON, Aug. 23 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chairman Congressman Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) will be the National Press Club Newsmaker at a News Conference at 10 AM Friday, August 27. The National Press Club is at 14th and F Streets, NW, 529 14th Street, N.W., Washington, DC 20045, in the National Press Building. The event will be in the Lisagor and White Rooms, 13th floor.
As the Democratic Party's Congressional Campaign Chair, as well as Assistant to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Cong. Van Hollen will discuss why he believes Democrats deserve to win the off-year elections and how they plan to do it, the legislative agenda as passed so far including health care, financial rescue, Wall Street reform, student loans, Afghanistan action, and Iraq withdrawal. He will also discuss pending action including the debate over tax cut extensions and his legislation to correct what he views as the error of the Supreme Court's allowance of corporate and special interest campaign ad buys – the Disclose Act. He will provide insight into the "message war" of what is in his view accurate versus wrongly perceived, as well as election strategy, opinion polls, and how he thinks dropping ratings for Congress can be corrected.
Cong. Van Hollen is also a member of the powerful Ways and Means Committee and the Committee on Oversight and Reform, and is Vice Chairman of the House Renewable Energy Caucus and Vice Chairman of the Democratic Task Force on Budget and Tax Policy.
The Baltimore Sun and Roll Call labeled Van Hollen a "rising star," and the Washington Post earlier this month called him "fast rising."
