President Obama To Join Pelosi For July Fundraiser In Silicon Valley

WASHINGTON (AP) _ President Barack Obama is returning to Silicon Valley to help House Democrats fill their campaign coffers ahead of the midterm elections.

Obama will join House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of California for the July 23 event. That's according to an invitation obtained by The Associated Press.

It's the eighth fundraiser Obama has held across the country this year for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. He's held more than a dozen others for Senate Democrats and other groups.

California real estate developer and major Democratic donor George Marcus will host the lunch at his home in Los Altos Hills. Tickets start at $10,000 per person and go up to $32,400 for a couple.

Obama was in Silicon Valley in May. He headlined multiple fundraisers for Democrats on that trip, too.
