John Delaney Makes 40th Trip To Iowa on November 20-21, 2019
Continues Heartland Tour to encourage investment in rural areas that are losing jobs and people
DES MOINES, IA — The John Delaney campaign will hit a milestone this week when Delaney returns to Iowa for his 40th trip as a candidate for President. The campaign has been hiring new field staff over the last few weeks and have signed up many volunteer “Precinct Captains” to lead our efforts across the state towards strong results in the February 3rd Iowa Caucuses.
"I’m excited to be in Iowa continuing my Heartland tour, speaking with Iowans about concerns over their economic future. We need to focus on the importance of encouraging investments in rural areas. Business investment has not been coming to rural Iowa, as a result these areas have been shrinking and aging and young people are leaving to find employment elsewhere. We need to both encourage and help small businesses so that we can stem the flight from rural areas and stimulate economic development. Also, while the nationalized nature of the race has worked to diminish the impact of rural Iowa, folks are caucusing for me not only because they agree with my moderate, bipartisan approach to leadership but also as a clear statement that Iowa should both remain first in the nation in the Presidential contest and that rural Iowa in particular must have a voice so that all of rural America has a voice" said Delaney.
Delaney’s 40th trip to Iowa will be November 20th and 21st. On November 20th, Delaney will be speaking and meeting with the Iowa Afterschool Alliance at a public school in Burlington, followed by a town hall on November 21 at Nationwide Insurance in Des Moines, a presentation with his “Heartland StartUp Tour” at the Wind Turbine Tech training facility at Iowa Lakes Community College and finally a “40th Trip Party” at Fox Brewing in West Des Moines.
