Elizabeth Warren to campaign for Clinton in N.H. Saturday
Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren will be in New Hampshire Saturday to stump for Hillary Clinton as well as Senate candidate and current New Hampshire Gov. Maggie Hassan, the Clinton campaign said Friday.
Warren is expected to appear at three functions: two “New Hampshire Together” canvass launches and one organizing event at the University of New Hampshire.
“Warren will lay out the high stakes of November’s elections for New Hampshire families and urge grassroots supporters and students to volunteer in the final weeks leading up to Election Day,” Clinton’s camp said in a statement.
In addition to stumping for Clinton and Hassan, Warren will lobby for “Democrats up and down the ballot.”
Warren is expected to discuss higher education reform and Clinton’s plans to make public universities more affordable. On Thursday, Warren introduced new legislation that would amend the Higher Education Act of 1965 and increase accountability and oversight for accrediting agencies.
The New Hampshire appearances come just days after Warren made headlines for unleashing a “verbal evisceration” on Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf during a Tuesday committee hearing. Warren told Stumpf, “You should resign,” over allegations that his bank falsified accounts and that he mishandled the ensuing scandal.
