I haven’t heard much of anything from our Iowa Congressional candidates on cleaning up Iowa’s waters down to gulf? The road to it leads through Congress and the Farm Bill. Dept. of Agriculture and Secretary Tom Vilsack play major roles too. Paddling Des Moines River yesterday. Would you swim in that

Administration has opportunity to help #Pennsylvania and United Steelworkers #EverybodysUnion. Good analysis on NPR this AM.

As Iowans I’d rather focus on fixing laws and incentives that are driving illegal immigration. That’s where the next Congress comes in with Iowa representatives being part of a bipartisan solution. Chuck Grassley Congressman Zach Nunn Lanon Baccam Christina Bohannan Ryan Melton Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, M.D.

So many empty buses 🚌 driving around. State Fair one exception I’ve seen. There has to be a better Uber-like DART way which improves user service, system efficiency, and lowers costs to tax payers. Radically. Uber Des Moines Register #iowa #desmoines

DART annual budget $43.4 million. 3.5 million rides. Equals almost 10,000 unique riders if they road 365 days/yr at a cost of $4300 annually per rider. About $12.40 per ride. So maybe 30,000 regular riders using the bus every one of three days? How many of the 3.5 million rides

Here’s the inside baseball. Those who wouldn’t vote for Biden and many of those who were backing RFK earlier this year, are now saying they’ll back Harris. Race is almost within margin of error. Des Moines Register. #sundayvibes #Election2024

1) Fund the Government. 2) Address the Border with Comprehensive Immigration Reform 3) The best remedy for Democracy is an educated and informed electorate that can spot BS and call it out.

Good news with Fed decision Federal Reserve. 50 point cut in overnight lending rate. 0.50%. This will eventually help reduce consumer borrowing costs from credit cards to mortgages. A key driver of inflation has been ⬆️ cost of housing. This cut + future cuts should help increase

She’ll Vice President Kamala Harris sign the bill that Trump blocked. It would help to work with Mexico 🇲🇽 to stop the cartels from using migration as a transportation business.
