Series of town halls for veterans to coincide with July 4th holiday
Washington, D.C. – Congressman Dave Loebsack announced that he will be hosting a series of veterans town halls across Iowa’s Second District on his “Serving Those Who Served” tour. These forums give veterans and their families an opportunity to speak directly with Loebsack. Staff will also be on hand for veterans to seek assistance if they are having issues with the Veterans Administration, or any Federal agency. At each stop, Loebsack will be joined by representatives from local Veteran Service Organizations, County Veterans Affairs Officers and other groups.
“As Iowans come together to celebrate the founding of our nation, we must also take time to remember the men and women who have fought for the freedoms we treasure. As a military parent, I take great pride in serving those who served. I strongly believe there is no greater responsibility we have as a nation than to ensure our servicemembers have the support, equipment, and training they need to safely carry out their mission and that we care for our veterans with the same dignity and honor with which they served. I look forward to meeting with veterans and their families to discuss issues important to them and provide any assistance my office can help with.”
Forums will be held across Iowa’s Second District. This is the sixth year Loebsack has hosted town halls specifically for veterans around the July 4th holiday. Veterans, their families and media are invited to attend.
