In north liberty, brea love, kcrgtt nine news. Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders was in fayette today. There, he talked about his plans for education, proposing free tuition for students at public colleges and universities. Young people are leaving school hhh student debt.

Democratic caucusgoers will have a chance to ask the president ial hopefuls questions. It starts at 8 oclock, and you can see it on kcrg 9. 2. Cnns chris cuomo will moderate that event. On the republican side. A poll out today shows marco rubio is Still Holding onto third place in the gop field, here in iowa. Today he got just 12 percent to trumps commanding 34 percent in the fox news poll. But whwht could be helping rubio endorsement from the des moines register. This morning, he met with kcrgtv 9s chris earl in our studios in cedar rapids. From the opening moments of sundays 12 minute interview with florida senator marco rubio, he stressed multiple times that he is the republican who could defeat former secretary of state Hillary Clinton in a general election. Ill beaeaHillary Clinton. Yet can senator rubio find a path to get past donald trump or texas senator ted cruz, who have been 1st or 2nd in polling of ia republicans for months. Rubio has been a strong third, usually at 12 or 13 . I give the Republican Party the best chance to unify this party after the nomination fight is over. We will unify the Republican Party and we will create new conservatives. We are going to campaign to people that have not heard from the Republican Party in a long time. Border security hahabecome a critical issue for this election cycle. The senator talked about a firm stance on who gets into the u. S. And who does not. The first thing i would say is now, immigration, the number 1 issue, first and foremost, is keepepg isis out of americic when im president , if we do not know who you are or why youre coming, youre not getting into the united states. Number 2 is we have to secure pushing for this for most of time in the senate. The hiring of 20,000 new border agents. Completing the 700 miles of walls and fencing. An entry exit tracking system to prevent visa overstays also, something rare. A republican attacking Vermont DemocratBernie Sanders as its been secretary clinton who has been a rallying point at rallies. The people who are out of touch here are people like Bernie Sanders, who is an n owed democrat socialist. He doesnt hide that. I think he should run for president of sweden or some other country with economies he seems to enjoy. We want to be america. It is the Democratic Party that has gone way off the scale, far to the left, espousing openly socialist policies that are, perhaps appropriate for europe. They dont work here. We dont want them here. We want to be america. In cedar rapids, chris earl, kcrgtv 9 9 ws. The full version of this 12minute interview is online at kcrg. Com. County serves people going through hard times. But they wouldnt be able to help those people without volunteers. Well show you what those volunteers have to go through, to be part of the Crisis Center team. Dont involve exexnsive training. But volunteers at one program in Johnson County handle such challenging, and often about 60 hours of training. Kcrg tv9s mark carlson reports on the 24hour Crisis Line Program in Johnson County, in this weeks show you care spotlight. Ringing nats inside the Johnson County crisis centete theres a small room where inside volunteers make a big difference. We let them identify what their own crisis is, so we dont put a definition of what a crisis is or isnt, usually theyre in some kind of emotional turmoil, dealing with depression or anxiety, maybe theyre dealing with financial distress, thats been a big thing lately. In addition to staff about 100 volunteers help make up p e crisis line team. They help work the phones around the clock. Because a crisis knows no time. Were always aware that were as a team just working to help people in our area, but also other places, we get calls from not just iowa but all over the country. The calls can get very serious. About 10 percent involve talk of suicide. And the center takes dozens of call each day and roughly 8thousand per year. Omething that i defefitely that were all the same we all have the same needs, we need the same sort of support, but then this position confirmed that for me, it just seemed like people need others and that even at the worst times sometimes all you need is another voice at the other enen officials at the Crisis Center are now working to make the program even bigger. Ty hope to add another 25 to 50 volunteers so that ev more people can work the phones. S. Theyre a tremendous part of our program, last time i counted they do the work of about 810 fulltime employees for us, so we couldnt run the agency without them. And without them this community and far beyond would likely be a different place. Because there are many people who just need an ear. In iowa city, mark carlson, kcrg tv nine news.
