COLORADO, USA — Longshot Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard is holding town hall-style meetings in Colorado Springs and Boulder this week, her campaign said Tuesday, marking the Hawaiian congresswoman's first visit to Colorado since declaring her run.
Gabbard, 38, is serving her fourth term in Congress and is a major in the Hawaii National Guard. She's the first woman combat veteran to run for president.
"At the town halls, Tulsi will continue to share her vision for ending our engagement in costly regime change wars, the new Cold War and arms race, and investing U.S. resources in serving the needs of the American people," her campaign said in a release.
Gabbard appeared in Colorado Springs on Wednesday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Cheyenne Mountain Room in the Beckett Event Center, 6436 S. Highway 85-87.
A Thursday town hall is planned in Boulder from noon to 1:30 p.m. at The Avalon Ballroom, 6185 Arapahoe Road. Attendees are urged to bring a snack and to RSVP here.
Gabbard stands out in the Democrats' shrinking primary field with her strong opposition to military intervention abroad and other unorthodox positions.
