Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is set to host a town hall in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on Tuesday evening, his first appearance since leaving the Biden administration earlier this year.
The event, organized by VoteVets, is part of a broader effort to lift veterans’ voices during the Trump administration. Buttigieg, who ran an unsuccessful Democratic presidential primary campaign in 2020, is expected to discuss the impact President Trump has had on veterans during his first few months in office.
It also comes as Democrats have ramped up their presence in GOP-majority states and as the party looks ahead to the 2028 presidential election.
The town hall is scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m. EDT.
