The two leaders of Milwaukee's host committee for the 2020 Democratic National Convention have been fired amid allegations that they oversaw a toxic work environment

The dramatic shakeup comes less than six months before the showcase political event in swing state Wisconsin.
The host committee board issued a statement saying that the group's president, Liz Gilbert, and its chief of staff, Adam Alonso, were no longer employed by the organization effective immediately.

The firings came a day after Gilbert and Alonso were placed on leave
Joe Solmonese, the chief executive of the Democratic National Convention Committee, said the “gravity of the concernd raised” demanded a serious and meaningful response and he was grateful for the board acting promptly to address the issue.
Teresa Vilmain, described as a Wisconsin resident and convention veteran, was named as manager of day-to-day operations during the transition.
Full story on the firing of the leaders of the 2020 Democratic convention host committee, which has the critical job of raising the $70 million needed to put on the showcase event in Milwaukee:
