Branstad, Pederson Launch Iowa Initiative to Engage Presidential Candidates On Global Health and Extreme Poverty

The ONE Campaign is launching Iowa ONE Vote ’08, an unprecedented non-partisan high-tech, high energy campaign to mobilize caucus goers and engage U.S. presidential candidates to make the fight against global poverty and disease a key foreign policy and security issue at the 2008 Iowa Caucus.

Former Iowa Governor Terry Branstad and former Lt. Governor Sally Pederson join over 20,000 Iowans already committed to talking with candidates and voters about America’s role in the world and what the next president can do to save lives and secure our future.  

Iowa ONE Vote ’08: Saving Lives, Securing our Future brings together a powerful alliance, including: bi-partisan leaders, musicians, community leaders, political strategists, and influential faith leaders.  Iowa ONE Vote ’08 is part of a national campaign that will run aggressive mobilization and media campaigns in each of the early primary states.  More information can be found at http://www.onevote08.org.
