The largest progressive community organization in Iowa endorsed Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) for president on Monday ahead of the state's closely watched upcoming caucuses.

A press release from the Sanders campaign announced that the Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement (CCI) would make a formal endorsement of the senator at an event on Thursday, marking the second time Sanders has secured the group's endorsement after previously winning it in 2016.

“Some 2020 Presidential candidates have been embracing or acknowledging movement politics. But only one of them has been doing it for decades, just like Iowa CCI Action and our sister organization Iowa CCI,” said the head of Iowa CCI's political arm, Iowa CCI Action. “That's why Iowa CCI Action is endorsing Bernie Sanders. We’re standing with Bernie because Bernie stands with us.”
