The Gazette offers audio versions of articles using Instaread. Some words may be mispronounced.
Medicaid for our sick and elderly cut, “We are all going to die sometime”; SNAP cut etc. etc. and now Job Corps ended with one week notice. Young people suddenly homeless with hopes for an education and job training dashed. The same newscast reported that new businesses are not coming to Iowa because we don’t have enough young people to work. And our representatives and senators vote for the Big Ugly budget plan aiming to give our millionaires and billionaires tax breaks. Our next election can’t come soon enough.
