Tulsi Gabbard Endorsed by Kris Roberts, Vietnam War Veteran & Former New Hampshire State Rep

Tulsi Gabbard Endorsed by Kris Roberts, Vietnam War Veteran & Former New Hampshire State Rep

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard (U.S. Rep, Hawaii) was endorsed by Kris Roberts, a veteran of the Vietnam War and a former New Hampshire state representative. Roberts served in the Marines for 26 years, and he was the first black committee chairman in the New Hampshire legislature, where he supervised veterans' affairs. Roberts was a member of the New Hampshire veterans' steering committee for the Obama campaign in 2008.

“My vote is very important to me,” said Roberts. “If a candidate wants my vote, he or she must earn it. Tulsi Gabbard has earned my vote. I believe she is leader who is capable of making hard and unpopular decisions based on the common good; not based on her own political or personal gain. No false campaign promises.”

Tulsi has spent over 100 days campaigning in New Hampshire since kicking off her campaign in January of 2019 and conducted town halls across the Granite State.

Tulsi Gabbard Releases Statement on Iowa Caucuses

Tulsi Gabbard Releases Statement on Iowa Caucuses

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard (U.S. Rep, Hawaii) released the following statement concerning last night's Caucuses in Iowa:

“Thousands of people turned out to cast the first votes of this presidential primary in the Iowa Caucuses last night. Unfortunately, the voices of the people of Iowa have yet to be heard as the vote count continues, leaving voters frustrated and without the transparency and integrity in this process that they expect and deserve.

Now our attention turns to New Hampshire. As I’ve travelled across the state, preparing for the first-in-the-nation primary next week, I am heartened by how Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and Libertarians are coming together at our town halls every day, working side by side to ensure our government is of the people, by the people, and for the people -- not the powerful elite.

In the roughly two hours that Iowans spent last night at their caucuses, our government spent $11 million of taxpayers’ dollars in Afghanistan alone -- propping up corrupt warlords, while so many people I meet throughout New Hampshire and the country go without the basics: clean water, infrastructure, health care, education.

Two days ago, I visited HOPE for New Hampshire, a center in Manchester serving people still struggling with a deadly opioid crisis that has fallen out of the headlines. Many shared they cannot get the care they need for lack of funding. We’re lucky to live in the most prosperous country on earth, but life expectancy in New Hampshire is in decline.

As president, I will not allow this to stand.

I will redirect the dollars we are wasting on wasteful regime change wars, the New Cold War, and nuclear arms race and instead invest in the needs of the American people — like healthcare, education, protecting our environment, rebuilding our infrastructure, and so much more.

The voters of New Hampshire understand that our counter-productive foreign policy takes dollars directly out of their pockets and their communities. And the hyper-partisan political atmosphere that dominates Washington does not represent them.

It’s clear that the corporate media, the military-industrial complex, and the party establishment are threatened by this message, because it challenges their grip on power. They will do everything to silence us, while also rigging the primary process for billionaire candidates who think they can bypass the kind of grassroots campaigning that is the fuel of our movement.

So just as we have done for the past year, we will spend this final week taking our message directly to the people of New Hampshire, who refuse to be told by the pundits or the pollsters how to vote. They will be the ones to put us on a new course as a country.”

Tulsi has spent over 100 days campaigning in New Hampshire since kicking off her campaign in January of 2019 and conducted town halls across the Granite State.

Tulsi Gabbard, Supporters To Shred New Hampshire’s Slopes on January 28 2020

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard (U.S. Rep, Hawaii) will be hitting the slopes in the Granite State next Tuesday the 28th.

The campaign is expecting a large crew of adventurous supporters to join her and one lucky contestant will win an overnight trip to New Hampshire to meet and snowboard with Tulsi!

Recent polling out of New Hampshire shows Tulsi on a steady upwards climb, and the campaign’s growing momentum is being propelled by the enthusiasm and growing support of New Hampshire residents who share Tulsi’s vision of ushering in a future of peace, human dignity and true equality.

Tulsi has spent over 100 days (and counting) campaigning in the great state of New Hampshire since January 2019. She has connected with thousands of residents and has enjoyed discussing a wide range of issues with them at her nightly town halls.

Tulsi Gabbard to Speak at Martin Luther King Day Events in South Carolina on January 20 2020

Tulsi Gabbard to Speak at Martin Luther King Day Events in South Carolina on January 20 2020

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard (U.S. Rep, Hawaii) will return to the Palmetto state on Monday to attend South Carolina NAACP’s Annual King Day at the Dome and the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Commemorative Celebration in Florence.

Congresswoman Gabbard has long cited Dr. Martin Luther King as an inspiration, frequently quoting Dr. King’s remarks on visiting Hawaii, “We look to you for inspiration as a noble example, where you have already accomplished in the area of racial harmony and racial justice, what we are struggling to accomplish in other sections of the country, and you can never know what it means to those caught for the moment in the tragic and often dark midnight of man’s inhumanity to man, to come to a place where we see the glowing daybreak of freedom and dignity and racial justice.”
