Jim Webb Visits Iowa from Council Bluffs to Mason City on April 9-12, 2015

“Jim will be on the road in Iowa this week, from Council Bluffs to Mason City, for a mixture of events, greeting supporters, honoring veterans, listening to caucus voters, meeting with party leaders, helping local Democrats raise campaign funds, and delivering two dinner speeches in Des Moines – to the Polk County Democrats and to the Iowa Vietnamese Alliance. All part of Jim’s seriousness of purpose about exploring a presidential bid.” – Craig Crawford, Webb 2016 Communications Director

Webb will be joined on the trip by longtime friends former Parade Magazine publisher Walter Anderson and Democratic strategist Dave "Mudcat" Saunders. Also during his Iowa swing, Jim will meet privately with several party leaders, including Senate Minority Leader Mike Gronstal, IDP Chair Dr. Andy McGuire, former IDP Chair and DNC Committeeman Scott Brennan, and former Lt. Governor Patty Judge.

“I think it's safe to say that Iowans and the rest of the country are tired of the "same ol', same ol'" rhetoric when it comes to today's political atmosphere. They're ready for someone different, someone who will put people ahead of politics. That is Jim Webb. We are eager for Iowans to get a chance to meet Jim, get to know him, and see what he's all about.” – Rania Batrice, Iowa Director
