Jim Hightower: The Sensible Priorities Tour
By Iowans for Sensible Priorities
September 7-8, 2006
Ames, Des Moines, Cedar Falls, Dubuque, Bettendorf
Join us to hear one of the leading progressive voices of our time.
Jim Hightower is funny, smart, outrageous, and sometimes downright ornery, but he’s never boring. Jim will speak about the Sensible Priorities campaign and other pressing issues of the day.
“I reckon it’s pretty sensible to be spending our money on kids’ health care and education and keeping our environment clean. Must be why the politicians don’t like it.”
