Mathis will help Iowa reach a better future
Iowans in Senate District 18 will go to the polls for a special election Tuesday that is life and death for working families. What is in balance is the democratic majority in the Senate. What is at stake is getting us back to the basics.
Liz Mathis comes from a rural background and a working class family with philosophy that hard work by the working class should not be wiped away by frivolous spending, corporate greed and anti-worker agendas. Liz will work to ensure children have access to preschools. She will support tax credits for small business expansion and push for incentives to award state and local government contracts to Iowa-based businesses. Voting for Liz is voting for a better Iowa future.
