Beginning with her run for office in 2017, Bottoms has been called a rising star in the party. She has been credited with playing a role in helping flip two Republican-held U.S. Senate seats in Georgia in the 2020 election, which led to Democrats taking control of the Senate.
The Hall of Fame Celebration brings together Democratic supporters from across Iowa and celebrates the accomplishments of a select few honorees in particular. Waterloo Mayor Quentin Hart also will be among the speakers at the event.
