🐦 Feb. 23 at Noon- Bernie Sanders returns to Iowa for rally with Pete D'Alessandro
U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders will return to Iowa next week for a rally with a former campaign aide who’s now running for Congress.
D’Alessandro was a top adviser to Sanders’ near-miss Iowa caucuses campaign in 2016 and received his endorsement late last month. He’s also been endorsed by Our Revolution, the organization that succeeded Sanders' presidential campaign.
“Bernie knows that we need bold, progressive leaders in Congress if we’re going to change the direction of our country,” D’Alessandro said in a statement. “That’s why I’m proudly supporting Medicare for All, a $15/hour living wage, and free college tuition for those who work hard. We can take our country back and continue the movement Bernie started here in 2016.”
The Feb. 23 rally is free and open to the public, although the campaign is asking attendees to RSVP. It’ll be held at Curate, located at 322 E. Court Ave. in Des Moines’ East Village neighborhood. Doors open at 11 a.m. for the noon event.
