Progressive Leaders In All 99 Iowa Counties Endorse Bernie Sanders
DES MOINES -- Following the conclusion of the Iowa “Bernie Beats Trump” tour, Bernie 2020 today announced endorsements from community leaders and activists in all 99 Iowa counties. The group represents community leaders and activists fighting for Medicare for All, tuition-free college, a Green New Deal and repealing right to work in Iowa by strengthening unions.
This weekend, the Bernie 2020 Iowa field staff and volunteers hosted over 165 “Plan to Win” parties statewide where community leaders and party activists were trained on how to organize their communities and expand voter outreach.
“In 2016, the political revolution was sparked here in Iowa when thousands of working people came together in a show of grassroots strength to say that we should create a government and an economy that works for all of us and we’re happy to say that in 2019, our grassroots movement is stronger than ever,” said Iowa Bernie 2020 State Director Misty Rebik. “Taking on the corporations and special interests that have a stranglehold on our economy is tough work but I’m confident that the power of this statewide network of grassroots organizers can defeat them and deliver us a victory on caucus night.”

Over 85 Iowa Union Workers Endorse Bernie Sanders
Sept 24, 2019
DAVENPORT, Iowa -- Sen. Bernie Sanders’ campaign on Tuesday announced individual endorsements from over 85 Iowa union workers across the state during a stop on the “Bernie Beats Trump” Tour of Iowa.
“Right to work laws have been on the books in Iowa for over seventy years so it’s not hyperbole to say workers rights have been under attack here for generations. With Sen. Sanders’ Workplace Democracy Plan, Iowa’s Chapter 20 and so-called ‘right to work’ law will be a thing of the past. These union workers standing with Bernie Sanders are going to help us repeal right to work in Iowa once and for all,” said Bernie 2020 Iowa State Director Misty Rebik.
Last month at the Iowa AFL-CIO convention in Altoona, Sanders announced his Workplace Democracy Plan, a comprehensive platform to double union membership in his first term as president and effectively repeal Iowa’s Chapter 20 law that stripped the rights of public sector workers to collectively bargain for better benefits and safer working conditions.
Sanders received individual endorsements from a half dozen members of AFSCME Chapter 61, which challenged Iowa’s Chapter 20 in the State Supreme Court earlier this year. The individual endorsements of over a dozen Iowa UAW members comes the day before Sanders is set to walk the UAW GM picket line in Detroit-Hamtramck on Wednesday.
