The Veterans for American Power Tour is coming to the great state of Indiana!

Starting after Thanksgiving, we’ll be spending five days, barnstorming across the corn and soybean fields of Indiana — talking to veterans and voters alike about the threat posed by climate change to American security.

Better yet, this is just the beginning. The Tour will be visiting more states in the coming months, so stay tuned for more information!
