Branstad Coming To A Town Near You
Terry Branstad is touring the state this week to continue lying (why not just say it!) about Iowa’s finances so that he and his fellow GOP legislators can serve their corporate masters by taking Iowa's money for education and state parks, etc. and giving it to out of state corporations in the form of tax breaks, as I understand it. Here's your chance to talk to the gov about your concerns. In politics they say, it's all about who shows up.
If you can't attend or just can't stomach a Branstad visit, you can still fight back on the Republicans' attempt to dismantle education and send Iowa back to the dark ages.
The Iowa House of Representatives will hold a public hearing Tuesday, June 6, at 4:00 PM. If you wish to speak at the hearing, call (515) 281-5129 or email testimony to lioinfo@legis.state.ia.us.
