The Atlanta City Council has approved funding for the 2028 Democratic National Convention. Up to $36 million is pledged if Atlanta is chosen to host the event. The city is one of five shortlisted to welcome the convention, alongside other major US cities.

Funding would come from excess hotel/motel tax amounts. Further details on the resolution and Atlanta's bid to host the 2028 DNC are available from local news sources, including the specifics of the council's approval and the city's preparations for the potential event.
