Rathje is the man for 1st District
The Gazette Opinion Staff

We are pleased to see businessman Steve Rathje run for U.S. Congress in northeast Iowa's new 1st District.
As a small-business owner the last 20 years, Rathje has successfully kept Iowa jobs from going overseas and he has a track record of bringing jobs back to Iowa from foreign countries.
Rathje's no-nonsense, conservative approach to business and the economic nightmare we are in can surely help put people back to work.
Fresh ideas from a man with sound convictions and principles are what we need in Washington D.C. Rathje is that man!
