“American Bakers PAC is privileged to announce that Rudy Giuliani will keynote the American Bakers PAC Dinner during the 2015 ABA Convention," said American Bakers PAC Chairman Steve Avera, Flowers Foods. “Mr. Giuliani is a dynamic speaker who will share his insider’s perspective on the current political environment, including an analysis of the potential for bipartisan governing in the 114th Congress, the 2016 presidential election, and more.”
Celebrated by many as “Mayor of the World,” Rudy Giuliani provides a resolute voice in tackling the toughest domestic and international issues of our time. Acclaimed as one of the most effective chief executives in modern American history for his leadership and bravery during 9-11, Giuliani was named TIME magazine’s Person of the Year, was given an honorary knighthood by the Queen of England and was awarded the Ronald Reagan Presidential Freedom Award. In 2008, Mayor Giuliani ran for the Republican nomination for President of the United States. During his campaign, he galvanized the national debate on such critical issues as national security, education, energy independence, healthcare, and the economy.
“We are very excited to bring such a well-respected and influential leader to Florida for this year’s American Bakers PAC Dinner,” said ABA PAC Director Kelly Knowles. “A limited number of high-dollar donors will also be able to meet personally with Mr. Giuliani during a roundtable discussion prior to the dinner. Funds raised will allow American Bakers PAC to support candidates who support bakers in the 2016 election.”
The American Bakers PAC Dinner is a ticketed event on Monday evening, March 30, during the ABA Convention. Invitations and ticket order forms will be distributed to authorized ABA members on Feb. 19.
