Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) is expected to launch her 2020 presidential campaign from Minneapolis on Sunday with a rally at a park by the Mississippi River.
"I'm asking you to join us on this campaign. It's a homegrown one. I don't have a political machine. I don't come from money," Klobuchar will say, per an advance copy of her planned remarks. "But what I do have is this: I have grit. I have family. I have friends. I have neighbors. I have all of you who are willing to come out in the middle of the winter, all of you who took the time to watch us today, all of you who are willing to stand up and say people matter."
