From a press release to supporters that arrived just minutes ago:
The John Edwards for President Campaign today announced that Senator Edwards will make his 24th trip to Iowa from Friday, May 25 to Sunday, May 27, 2007. Senator John Edwards will discuss his commitment to honoring the sacrifice America’s veterans have made defending our freedom. Edwards believes that America must improve veteran’s health care, including mental health, and invest more to ensure our troops and their families are not living in poverty.

Elizabeth Edwards will accompany her husband during a three-day campaign swing that includes stops in towns both big and small throughout eastern Iowa.

The trip comes in the wake of the Edwards’ major announcement that more than 1,500 women in Iowa, representing more than 800 precincts and all 99 counties, have formed “Women for Edwards” and committed to caucusing for Senator Edwards in January.

The trip includes visits to the following communities:
