Grinnell – Hillary Clinton Speeches

Saturday was a busy day in Iowa. With the caucus being Monday, candidates from both parties have flocked to the state, and for Hillary Clinton, supports have been canvassing the state for weeks. Politicians, actors, activists, and others have been speaking on her behalf, and Saturday was no different. Former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords and her husband, Mike Kelly, were in Iowa where they appeared with Hillary at an event in Ames, but then went to Des Moines to speak to Iowans about common sense gun control and why Hillary was the best candidate for that job.

Bill Clinton was also traveling across Iowa with events in Iowa Falls and Grinnell. At both events, he spoke about Hillary’s experience and why she is the best choice, not only for the Democratic nomination, but for president as well. Videos from Saturday’s events will be added when/if available.

Sunday is the final push before the Iowa caucus and a number of events are planned. For all the latest, follow our revamped Scheduled Events page and follow Clinton on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

Yesterday, Hillary Rodham Clinton attended two town hall events in Iowa. The first was held in Coralville, where Clinton hosted an outdoor event on an unseasonably warm day. Clinton opened the event with remarks about several of her policy points including gun control. Clinton then answered a number of questions from those in attendance. She was asked about a variety of topics including the backlog at the Department of Veteran Affairs, tensions with China, and immigration. Clinton then went to Grinnell College in Grinnell. Clinton held a very similar event where, again, she proposed tougher gun regulations and taking the National Rifle Association. She said, “A majority of Americans and a majority of gun owners know we have to make the changes. What stands in the way? One of the most powerful lobbies in our country. The NRA, that intimidates and bullies legislators and governors into doing what they want. That must end.”
