On Tuesday, Hillary Clinton wrapped up her most recent swing through Iowa with three events. She began the day in Osage where she held a town hall event similar to yesterday’s in that she urged voters to support her in Iowa’s upcoming caucus. She then took questions from the crowd. The second event was held in Sioux City where she unveiled her plan to support families struggling with Autism. More details from this event can be read HERE.

Clinton’s final stop today was in Council Bluffs where she held another town hall event. She voiced her support of today’s announcement by President Barack Obama to curb gun violence and introduce additional measures to ensure gun safety. And, since this was her last stop for this trip, she presented her final argument to voters saying, “Let me ask you to think about this job that you’re interviewing for. Think hard about the people who are presenting themselves to you, their experience, their qualifications, their positions. And particularly for those of us who are Democrats, their electability, and how we make sure we have a Democrat going back into that White House on Jan. 20, 2017.” Videos from today’s events in Osage and Council Bluffs will be added when/if available.

On Thursday, Clinton will begin a two day fundraising effort in California. For all the latest, follow our revamped Scheduled Events page and follow Clinton on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

On Monday, Hillary Clinton returned to Iowa where she hosted three events. The first was in Davenport where she set the tone for the day with a plea for voters to turn out and support her in Iowa’s caucus on February 1. She vowed to protect, and improve the Affordable Care Act and rework the economy so that it helps everyone and not just those at the top. She also spoke about other points from her platform including voting rights, gay rights, and women’s rights. A video from her event in Davenport is below.

Clinton then traveled to Cedar Rapids where hosted a town hall event. She gave a brief speech before taking questions from the crowd. One of the questions was in regard to Republican rival Donald Trump and his recent comments about her and President Barack Obama being responsible for the creation of ISIS. She responded by saying, “I’ve adopted a new year’s resolution. I’m going to let him live in his alternative reality and I’m not going to respond.”

Clinton wrapped up the first day of her trip to Iowa in Des Moines. The event was billed as a “Get Out the Caucus” rally. Her speech was similar to one she gave earlier in the day in Davenport where she stressed the importance of voters to turn out and vote for her at the February 1 caucus. A video from the event in Des Moines is below. A videos from Cedar Rapids will be posted when/if available.
