Obama to Raise Cash for Dems in NY, Chicago

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama will raise cash for Democrats in New York this week and Chicago next month.

A Democratic official says Obama will raise money for the Democratic National Committee Tuesday night during a trip to New York for the dedication of a United Nations building.

Obama will also attend a democratic fundraiser April 14 in his hometown of Chicago, the same city where his re-election campaign will be based.

The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because the events have not been formally announced.
