There are 56 people at this event, with more still trickling in. This is town hall 37 of 39, the third time J.D. has done the circuit, visiting every county in Iowa’s fourth districtpic.twitter.com/P5yloA9nAj
First question: Steve King is unwilling to debate. Is there any way to get him to do it before the election? J.D.—In my baseball days, we called out people who would "fake hustle" only when the coach was around, or the cameras were around. Steve King is a "fake hustle" politician
Question about polarization in Congress, and how he'll do things to fight it. J.D. pledges to continue to hold town halls while in office, gives similar answer about cross-cutting Iowa issues as in previous town hall (agriculture, prescription drug prices, infrastructure)
Question about why so many politicians become trapped in the lobbyist complex. J.D. explains the ugly truth—corporate PACs can give $5,000, which is a lot easier than calling hundreds of constituents to get a $20 donation. We need to break the back of this system in D.C.
Charged question about immigration: how do we make immigrants assimilate, to prevent the Balkanization of the country? J.D. has his answer, but I will give my own: brother, the Balkanization of this country would be fucking delicious.
Crowd loudly applauds J.D.'s answer on immigration—we need real immigration reform and a pathway to citizenship, as well as a temporary visa system that serves the needs of the midwest, not just the coasts. Quotes Reagan's shining city on a hill, which had walls with open doors
Woman gets loud cheers for suggesting that "we give Congress the same health care we have. We would get health care reform overnight!"
J.D. gets a standing ovation from the crowd, something I’ve never seen at a town hallpic.twitter.com/SanWd1ABke
