Obama to fundraise for Democratic National Committee in California

Former President Barack Obama will raise money for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) at a fundraiser in California next month.

Obama will appear for a conversation with DNC Chairman Tom Perez on Nov. 21 in Los Altos Hills, according to the invitation for the event, which was first obtained by Politico. The DNC confirmed the veracity of the invitation to The Hill. 

{mosads}Tickets for the event range from $10,000 to $355,000, the most expensive of which contains perks including access to National Finance Committee Benefits and the “Premium Convention Package.”

Obama has shirked the public spotlight in the 2020 cycle thus far, though he did appear on the campaign trail for several candidates in the 2018 midterms.

While the former president remains popular among the party faithful, his record has come under question by some activists and 2020 candidates, particularly over his immigration policy and whether the Affordable Care Act went far enough in expanding access to health care.
