Clinton Hosts New Hampshire Town Hall

Hillary Rodham Clinton returned to New Hampshire on Tuesday for a town hall event in Nashua. The event comes one day after Clinton unveiled her climate plans. During the town hall event, she was asked a number of questions, but the one question that she continues to refuse to answer is regarding the Keystone Pipeline. She has been pressed to give a yes or no answer, but she said, “This is President Obama’s decision and I’m not going to second-guess him. If it’s undecided when I become president, I will answer your question.” A full video from today’s town hall is below.

Tomorrow, Clinton is scheduled to attend fundraisers in New York and Pennsylvania. Be sure to follow along on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram for all the latest updates.

Clinton Previews her Climate Policy in Iowa

BN-JO257_CLINTO_P_20150726171839Yesterday, Clinton kicked off a three-day visit to Iowa by attending a campaign event in Winterset, Iowa where she spoke with supporters then answered questions from reporters. A number of questions were about allegations that Clinton sent and received classified information on her private email server as Secretary of State and a possible investigation by the Department of Justice. She denies the claims saying, “I am confident I never sent nor received any information that was classified at the time it was sent and received. What I think you’re seeing is a very typical kind of discussion to some extent, disagreement among various parts of the government over what should or what should not be publicly released.”

On Saturday, Clinton also gave a speech and answered questions at an event at Beaverdale. A video from this event is posted above.

Today, Clinton gave a speech in Ames at an organizing event where she previewed her plans to combat climate change and her commitment to clean energy. Tomorrow, Clinton will provide full details of her plan in a speech in Des Moines. In her preview, Clinton took the opportunity to criticize the Republican presidential candidates who deny climate change is a reality saying, “Those people on the other side, they will answer any question about climate change by saying I’m not a scientist. I’m not a scientist either—I’m just a grandmother with two eyes and a brain…I know that if we start addressing it, we’re going to actually be creating jobs and new businesses.”

A video from today’s speech will be posted when/if it becomes available. Until then, watch the video released by the Clinton campaign about climate change.

Tomorrow, Clinton concluded her three-day trip to Iowa in Des Moines. Follow along on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram for all the latest updates.
