All six Democratic candidates running for the 6th Congressional District–Beth Andres-Beck, John Beccia, Jamie Belsito, Dan Koh, Dr. Mariah Lancaster, and Representative Tram Nguyen–have confirmed their attendance.

This event is free and open to the public. Please contact Lynn Democratic City Committee co-chair Jean Michael Fana at lynndems@gmail.com for more information or to request the Zoom link.
