NextGen Iowa is looking to energize progressive voters before election day, as well as President Donald Trump's visit to Council Bluffs Tuesday night.
"We want people to know we have the power to change how things are going in our country and that this is a democracy," NextGen America's Amor Habbab-Mills said. "We are going to change the system through voting."
Habbab-Mills and NextGen Iowa plan to be outside the Mid-America Center to oppose the President's visit and encourage young voters to go to the polls for the midterm election.

"It is important to get the youth vote out this midterm election," Habbab-Mills said. "This demonstration hopefully will encourage other people with the same ideas and issues we care about to go out and vote."
After Monday afternoon's rally at Bayliss Park, the group gathered inside Barley's to make signs to get their message across on Tuesday.
"We're losing everything that it means to be an American," one voter said. "Equal rights, fairness, and taking care of each other."
NextGen Iowa demonstrators plan to gather outside at the front of the Mid-America Center at 4 p.m. Tuesday.
