J.D. Scholten, Democratic candidate for Iowa’s 4th Congressional district, will host a town hall in Churdan on Monday, Dec. 16, as part of his “Don’t Forget About Us” tour. During the tour, Scholten will hold a town hall in a town with a population of less than 1,000 in each of the 4th district’s 39 counties.
According to Scholten, too often,Iowa’s rural communities have been forgotten and left behind by politicians. As a result of the years of federal neglect and the lack of investment, hospitals consolidate, grocery stores and schools close, and more and more of Iowa’s children leave the district due to the lack of opportunity. J.D. is committed to making these towns a priority and revitalizing our rural communities.
The town hall meeting will be at 5 pm at the Churdan public library. This community event is free and open to the public. Everyone is welcome.
