I strongly endorse Harry Foster as a candidate for Iowa House District 65.

I have known Foster for over 20 years and I have worked with him in Boy Scouting and in a number of church and other responsibilities.

I have always observed him to be honest, hard working, and a true friend to all. He is a Christian and has strong moral values. I have the pleasure of knowing his fine family, and I know Foster to be a devoted husband and father. Additionally, he has served his country well for many years, including three deployments to Iraq. He is an inspiration to me and I consider it an honor to know him.

He would represent the citizens of House District 65 very well.
