Bennett in the House means strong ethics

I endorse Liz Bennett for Iowa House District 65. Bennett, a good friend of mine, will bring hard work, pragmatic experience and a strong set of ethics. After many people urged her to run, she accepted. After raising a family here and running a local business, I find she shares the same concerns I have for Iowa.
Some of the concerns she shares with me and her neighbors include climate change, safe dependable jobs, increasing the minimum wage and security and care of our seniors. She also understands that a great public school system, including preschool availability, for every child is the backbone to a resilient Iowa. For more information, visit www. lizforiowa.com.
