Sanders, O'Malley to appear at family-focused forum.
Democratic presidential contenders Bernie Sanders and Martin O'Malley will both speak at a January "Putting Families First Presidential Forum" hosted by two liberal community groups in Des Moines.
The event organized by the Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement Action Fund and the Center for Community Change Action will focus on climate change, racial and economic justice and other issues that affect "communities who were left behind in the economic recovery," according to a news release. The progressive magazine The Nation is also a partner in the event.
The forum will begin at 1:30 p.m. at First Christian Church, 2500 University Ave. People who are interested in learning more about the event can visit www.cccaction.org or www.cciaction.org.
