Hawkeye Stages bus driver is participating in a rally Wednesday in Washington, D.C.

The tour bus industry has been hard hit by the coronavirus outbreak.  That's why bus operators from all 50 states—including Iowa—are heading to Washington, D.C. this week for a rally in the nation's Capitol.

Hawkeye Stages bus driver Jake Hildebrand left Decorah on Monday, driving a bus with signs on it in support of federal help for the tour bus industry.  An estimated eight miles of buses will take part in the rally on Wednesday.
