Democrats Stress Crime Fight At Clinton Convention
The Democratic convention featured speeches across Ohio as Clinton led in polls by double digits over Dole and Perot. Protests erupted briefly as security, police presence, and a tense atmosphere surrounded the United Center while discussions highlighted gun control and welfare reform. James and Sarah Brady delivered a high profile endorsement of Clinton’s gun violence agenda, citing the Brady Bill and a pledge to end violence. Meanwhile INS reported deportations of workers from Marshalltown, Waterloo, Storm Lake, and Charles City plants, with totals and future enforcement plans outlined.
