Update: Chelsea Clinton to campaign for Hillary Clinton in Virginia

Contributors

hillary clintonChelsea Clinton will campaign for Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine in Roanoke and Salem on Wednesday.

During a tour of a pre-kindergarten facility, Clinton will emphasize her mom’s plans to expand early childhood education before visiting Roanoke College to lay out the stakes of November’s election for millennial voters and discuss her mom’s plans to make free community college and debt-free college available to all Americans.

Clinton and Kaine’s plan, the New College Compact, would ensure that costs won’t be a barrier to attending college and that debt will not hold individuals back from achieving their goals upon completing their education. Under the plan, 94,000 Virginia students would pay no tuition for a four-year college degree.

Members of the public interested in attending the Roanoke College event can RSVP here.
