COUNTY 15: Ended last night in Council Bluffs, Iowa with energized Dems ready to #WinBig! Thanks Steve & Chris for hosting, my friend @FranParrCB for coming & our great field team @emmaforamy & Jonah @Winn_Big for being amazing organizers out here & meeting people where they are.
@FranParrCB @emmaforamy @Winn_Big COUNTY 16: Harrison County! Good morning from Logan, Iowa. Needed that cup of coffee from Bunkhouse Cafe Too to start the day… hitting another 9 counties today! #ForAllofAmerica Image
@FranParrCB @emmaforamy @Winn_Big COUNTY 17: Shelby! Shout out to @JDScholten for recommending @MilkHoneyIowa! It’s as good as you say it is and the team here is even better! Thanks to the owners, Dan & Ellen, for having us! Image
COUNTY 18: Audubon! I’m here not only visiting Iowans, but also Albert, the World’s Largest Bull! I have now visited the world’s largest bull in Iowa, the world’s largest strawberry in Strawberry Point, and also in my home state the largest ball of twine! Big things ahead... Image
COUNTY 19: Crawford! We’re making our way across Iowa and visiting every county. In each town I hear new stories and that’s why I’ll be a President #ForAllofAmerica: I’ll go everywhere, listen and bring people with me. Image
COUNTY 20: Monona! Marilyn and James hosted our campaign to discuss agriculture and the rural economy at their family farm in Onawa.

It’s time we have a President who stands with our farmers and ranchers. Donald Trump has delivered them nothing but broken promises. Image
COUNTY 21: Ida County! Here at Old Town Vineyard & Winery, a family-owned & operated business. And we got a nice #Skyowa sunset as our 2nd day on the road nears an end! #ForAllofAmerica ImageImage
COUNTY 22: Great meet and greet with people in Sac County! We covered all things rural — rural hospitals, big oil waivers from the Trump admin and infrastructure. These are the issues people are talking about here and addressing them is how we’re going to win big in 2020. Image
COUNTY 23: Calhoun! Good to warm up tonight with cocoa on the bus! The Calhoun County Democrats are a happy bunch, especially little Elle! Thank you for coming out and sharing the issues important to all of you. #ForAllofAmerica Image
COUNTY 24: Cherokee! Wrapped up Day 3 of our 27 County Bus Tour (over 1,000 miles logged JUST today!) with a tour of the Sanford Museum & Planetarium. Thank you to the wonderful museum staff for showing me around. Cherokee County is lucky to have this resource! #ForAllofAmerica Image
COUNTY 25: O’Brien. A great group here came out and met us for breakfast at 7am! Lively breakfast and a great conversation. Thank you to O'Brien County Democrats Chair @karensterk1 for welcoming us and all for sharing the issues important to those in your county. Image
COUNTY 26: Osceola! Great sitting down with Iowans at Charlie's Bar, a thriving small business in Ashton that's become a popular spot in town since its opening 1 year ago. As President, I'll prioritize investing in rural communities so we can support businesses like Charlie's. Image
COUNTY 27: The 27th and final county on this tour — Lyon! Just had my first breakfast pizza with a bunch of Iowans on our big green bus. @RobSandIA was right, this stuff is good! #ForAllofAmerica Image

So John and I went off the grid on our own at the Minnesota State Fair on a long Sunday afternoon journey in search of our friends' blue ribbon salsa 🍅🏆 and saw some really cool stuff along the way…
Image
Image
At first we thought it was in the horticulture 🪴🍎🐝 building so we asked some U of M master gardeners 🌸 and somehow ended up surrounded by the state's biggest pumpkins but no salsa...
Image
Image
Then a Christmas tree 🌲 decorated with all state fair ornaments…out of season but still! Image

Yesterday on the Senate floor, I told the story of an #ImmigrantHealthHero on the frontlines treating COVID-19 patients at Mayo Clinic. While she's saving lives, she's worried she won't be able to stay here to do her work while filling out paperwork to prove she’s “worth keeping"
President Franklin D. Roosevelt once said, “Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear.” These doctors are choosing service over fear. Saving lives, saving someone’s grandma is more important to them than fear.
That’s why I’m leading efforts to reauthorize the Conrad 30 Program which allows foreign doctors trained in the U.S. to work in underserved areas and keep doing their heroic service for our country during this pandemic.

COUNTY 7: Decatur! In Lamoni, Iowa (population: 2,300). We’re 43 days away from the Iowa caucus & people are showing up because they know what it’s going to take to #WinBig: we need to bring people with us, go everywhere & leave no one behind. #ForAllofAmerica Image
COUNTY 8: Thanks Sarah & Steve, Clarke County Dems Co-Chairs & everyone who came to Osceola, IA today to talk about infrastructure, affordable housing and so much more. From big cities to small towns, people want an optimistic economic agenda and an opportunity to succeed. Image
COUNTY 9: Union County! And Malcolm here just gave me the Iowa “golden ticket” - a commit to caucus card signed by him! #ForAllofAmerica Image

27 counties. 4 days.

COUNTY 1 on our #ForAllOfAmerica bus tour: Henry County, Iowa! Sharing my message from last night’s debate: what unites us is far stronger than what divides us and we must beat Donald Trump in 2020. Image
COUNTY 2: In 2012, Jefferson County voted for President Obama to serve a second term.

In 2016, they flipped and voted for Donald Trump.

I'm here today making my case in 2020: we can and will win in rural America. #ForAllofAmerica Image
COUNTIES 3 & 4: Van Buren & Davis. Stopped at Misty’s for a malt and then Sidelines Grill. People here know that it’s time to bring this country together. That’s what I’ll do: unite our country with an optimistic economic agenda and beat Donald Trump. #ForAllofAmerica ImageImage

The Trump Administration supports totally undoing the Affordable Care Act.

I’m headed to the Senate floor to read the letters of 100 families from across the country who would suffer if these protections went away.
Because of the Affordable Care Act, Delaney is able to get mammogram screenings to see if she carries the same genetic trait that several of her relatives have.
Kate calls her son, "the baby that almost didn’t happen" after battling cancer. She wrote, "Because of the ACA, I faced a future of hope."
