<p>Although the trip is being pegged as one pertaining to <a href="https://twitter.com/JeremyBWhite/status/1635774004383608832" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official business</a>, the 2024 presidential election cycle is beginning to get underway, and early-voting Iowa is already attracting current or prospective Republicans candidates, including <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2023/03/13/trump-iowa-plan-to-avoid-missteps-00086924" target="_blank" rel="noopener">former President Donald Trump</a>, <a href="https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/elections/presidential/caucus/2023/03/10/nikki-haley-returns-iowa-march-campaign-2024-republican-presidential-candidate/69949738007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley</a>, <a href="https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/elections/presidential/caucus/2023/02/15/mike-pence-rails-against-radical-gender-ideology-in-cedar-rapids/69908705007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">former Vice President Mike Pence</a>, and <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/10/politics/ron-desantis-iowa-president-republican-primary/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Florida Governor Ron DeSantis</a>.</p>

<p>The decision led to a rebuke by Iowa Democratic Party Chairwoman Rita Hart, who warned the move will make Democrats vulnerable to claims that they have “turned their back on Iowa and rural America,&#8221; <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/democrats-make-south-carolina-first-presidential-primary-voting-state-rcna68918" target="_blank" rel="noopener">per NBC News</a>.</p>

<p>Harris, a former U.S. senator and attorney general from California, journeyed to Iowa as a presidential candidate in the 2020 cycle, including a visit to the <a href="https://www.c-span.org/video/?463123-2/senator-kamala-harris-iowa-state-fair" target="_blank" rel="noopener">famous Iowa State Fair</a> a few months before she dropped out of the race ahead of the state&#8217;s <a href="https://www.npr.org/2016/01/29/464804185/why-does-iowa-vote-first-anyway" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first-in-the-nation</a> caucuses.</p>
