The open houses will take place at Hillary for Iowa organizing offices around the state.
“Hillary
Clinton is committed to earning the support of Iowans in next year’s
caucuses and is thrilled to have these leaders working hard for her
campaign,” said Hillary for Iowa State Director Matt Paul. “This
campaign is built by Iowans and we welcome the support of everyone who
wants to pitch in and help elect Hillary Clinton and build an America
where all families can get ahead and stay ahead.”
