RNC

Republicans on Friday unanimously chose Milwaukee in swing state Wisconsin for the 2024 national convention, a win for the city after its hosting of the Democratic convention in 2020 was upended by the COVID-19 pandemic. NBC 5 political reporter Mary Ann Ahern reports.

Republicans have chosen Milwaukee in swing state Wisconsin to host the 2024 national convention, beating out Nashville in deep-red Tennessee.

The RNC announced voted to require GOP presidential candidates to abstain from presidential debates sanctioned by the Commission on Presidential Debates, which has overseen the process for decades.

Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., criticized the Republican National Committee for censuring two Republican members of the House of Representatives for serving on the January 6th Committee.

Former President Donald Trump says Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell “does not speak for the Republican Party.”

Trump withdrew from a debate hosted by the nonprofit commission in Oct. 2020 after organizers made it virtual following his Covid diagnosis.
