John Kevin Delaney (born April 16, 1963) is an American businessman, politician, and former attorney who was the United States representative for Maryland's 6th congressional district from 2013 to 2019. He is the founder and chairman of Forbright Bank and was a candidate in the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries. In 2017, Delaney was named one of the World’s 50 Greatest Leaders by Fortune magazine. By the time he turned 40 in 2003, Delaney had founded and led two New York Stock Exchange listed financial services companies – HealthCare Financial Partners and CapitalSource. In 2012, Delaney stepped down from his role as Chairman and CEO of CapitalSource Inc to pursue public office. On July 28, 2017, Delaney became the first Democrat to announce his run for president in 2020. Delaney did not run for re-election to Congress in 2018, choosing to focus on his presidential campaign. In November 2018, fellow Democrat David Trone was elected to succeed Delaney in Congress, and subsequently endorsed him for President in 2020. Delaney suspended his campaign on January 31, 2020, citing low poll numbers and wanting to avoid pulling support from other candidates. He later endorsed Joe Biden for president. He is the husband of U.S. congresswoman April McClain Delaney, who currently represents his former district.
