I joined this race a year ago seeing how the last presidential election led to desolation and division. But after spending months on the trail bringing our message to millions, I saw firsthand the resilience of American families and the hope they carry for the future.
Tonight, folks here in the Hawkeye State start caucusing for the person they think should be the Democratic nominee.

Right now, we’re the best-positioned campaign to win against Donald Trump, but the challenge we face is making it that far.
If you know anybody in Iowa, now is the time to call them and make sure they’re caucusing tonight to help turn the page to what must come next.

If you are in Iowa, make sure you know where you are caucusing tonight: p4a.us/caucus
Then, if you can, please chip in to help us sprint across the finish line in Iowa, and keep up our momentum into New Hampshire in just 8 days: p4a.us/Caucus-Day
Americans are hungry for a president and a movement that will rally us all around a shared vision for the future—one defined not by exclusion, but by belonging.
The way to win—to defeat this president and unite our country—is to bring everybody in.

I am asking you to join me, caucus for me, and chip in to help us turn the page to what comes next: p4a.us/Caucus-Day

Every time Democrats have won the White House in the last half century, we’ve had a candidate who is focused on the future—one who hadn't been in Washington very long, if at all, and was opening the door to a new generation of leadership.
We've got to galvanize, not polarize, the historic American majority that we have right now, in order to win and in order to govern and actually get big things done.
History shows us that the biggest risk we could take would be to look to the same Washington playbook and recycle the same arguments—and expect that to work against a president like Donald Trump.

No region of our country is immune to the threats we face. A gig worker in California is struggling with the same tectonic shifts in our economy as a driver in South Bend or a nurse in South Carolina. An Iowa farmer fears the costs of climate change as much as a student in NY.
From coastal cities to rural and industrial communities like mine, we are one nation. We are all at risk of a changing climate, an evolving economy, an unchecked gun lobby, politicians who put party before country, a president who divides us while putting himself above the law.
This is the most consequential election of our lifetimes. The next president will come into office at a moment of profound change. We cannot afford to relive old arguments, recycle old approaches, or return to the political warfare we have come to accept from Washington, DC.

Women make up half the American workforce. But across the board—from CEOs to first responders—women are not paid equally for the work they do.

On average, women are paid 83 cents for each dollar paid to a white man. For Black women, it falls to 62 cents. For Latinas, it’s 52.
On this day in 2009, President Obama took an important step forward by signing the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, giving women the power to right past wrongs. But 11 years later, women are still earning less for equal work.

It's 2020. That's unacceptable.
If we don’t act now, it could take 200 years for the gap to close for all women.

It’s time to break with the past and build lasting power for all women in America—that means closing the gap and tackling the injustices that go beyond equal pay.

i hope lots of community members turn out to today’s jail board meeting to show support for a vote to stop the jail’s current practice of voluntary ICE notifications BUT if too many people come, the meeting overflow area is outside and it’s literally ICY 🌬❄️
so, please come but get there early if you need to ensure you’ll be seated inside &amp; dress warmly. i’m bringing a blanket &amp; some extra hand warmers.
this was just about a year ago — the board voted last january (while i watched from the freezing outdoor overflow area) to do nothing about the current policy. come on out to the jail (it’s literally at the jail) at 12:30 to see if they can do better.
