Pompeo slated to give speech at Lincoln Dinner
NIKI KELLY | The Journal Gazette
INDIANAPOLIS – Former U.S. Secretary of State and CIA Director Mike Pompeo will keynote the Allen County Republican Party s 2022 Lincoln Day Dinner in April.
The dinner is scheduled April 26 at Grand Wayne Convention Center.
Allen County Republican Party Chairman Steve Shine made the announcement today, about a month after confirming that Florida Republican U.S. Sen. Rick Scott – chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee – will headline the Reagan Bean Dinner on Oct. 8.
Shine said Pompeo accepted the invitation as a result of his relationship with local businessman and entrepreneur Brian Bauer, president of IU Health Fort Wayne and former president of Lutheran Health Network. Bauer extended the invite during a recent visit with Pompeo in New York.
