Julian Castro

San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro, who delivered the keynote speech at last year?s Democratic National Convention, will be the keynoter for the Florida Democratic Party?s annual Jefferson-Jackson fundraising dinner on June 15 in Broward County.

It?s the second year in a row the party has tapped an up-and-coming Latino mayor for the headliner role. Last year, Los Angeles Mayor Anthony Villaraigosa keynoted an event that drew about 1,000 people and raised an estimated $750,000.

Sen. Bill Nelson and Democratic National Committee Chairwoman and U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz will also be featured at this year?s $180-a-plate J-J dinner at the Westin Diplomat Hotel in Hollywood.
