GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Tom Perez ,chair of the Democratic National Committee says even though campaigning is different during a pandemic, he is still reaching out to voters nationwide.

Perez spoke with News 8 Political Reporter Rick Albin on Thursday about the presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden, and his push for more manufacturing jobs.

Perez told Albin, “I am very excited about Joe Biden’s commitment to building really a million of middle-class jobs, investing in clean energy, investing in modern infrastructure, investing in the auto industry so that we can command the global market in electric vehicles, we can command the global market in wind turbines in solar panels — things where we are getting our clock cleaned right now by China.”

Albin said Perez still expects to have the Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee next month, though he says it will have a smaller footprint and a smaller crowd.
