Iowa House attacking women and children
The Gazette Opinion Staff
Feb. 19, 2011 8:01 am
The new leadership in the Iowa House is showing its true colors. Instead of creating jobs and improving the lives of Iowans they have been busy cutting education for children and health care for women so they can give corporations another tax cut.
Cutting family planning services and education for families who are struggling during hard economic times is fiscally and morally irresponsible. I guess when it comes to the question of who to attack, the Iowa Republicans have chosen women and children first.
