“There are no winners and there are no losers. All of us have our part to play in moving the agenda of 2020 and beyond, and I believe as the theme of the 9th National Delegate Congress suggests together we win. We are not leaving anybody behind, we are holding each other’s hand to move the agenda towards recapturing power in 2020.”
