Sen. Ted Cruz and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal will headline a September gathering of social conservatives in Iowa, which is home to one of the most watched Senate races of the midterm elections and the first stop of the 2016 presidential race.
The Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition announced that Mr. Cruz and Mr. Jindal, possible contenders for the GOP presidential nomination, will appear at the “Fall Family Banquet” on Sept. 27 in Des Moines.
“We are thrilled that Senator Cruz and Governor Jindal are coming to Iowa to have a dialogue with Iowans about the serious challenges that our nation is facing under the current administration,” Steve Scheffler, President of Iowa Faith & Freedom Coalition, said in a statement. “This event will be the launching pad for our voter mobilization and get-out-the-vote efforts in the fall. We look forward to Cruz and Jindal sharing their views on how to build a better America and Iowa with new leadership at both the federal and state levels.”
