Last week was... a lot.

📱 ON THE INTERNET 📱
Iowa Democratic Party (@iowademocrats): Abortion is *still* legal in Iowa. And we’re going to fight to keep it that way. [[link removed]]

Rep. Jennifer Konfrst (@KonfrstForHouse): I am angry. I am scared. And I’m ready to fight back. Everyone deserves the right to make their own health care decisions, especially when it comes to reproductive health care. These decisions do not belong in the hands of politicians. [[link removed]]

Liz Mathis (@lizmathis1): Many Iowa teachers positively impacted my life. My Grandmother and her sister graduated from Iowa State Teachers College (now UNI) in 1915. My mother also taught in a one-room schoolhouse. As we close out #TeacherAppreciationWeek, please join me in giving thanks to all our outstanding Iowa teachers who nurture and educate Iowa’s next leaders. Do you have a teacher who made a difference in your life? [[link removed]]

Iowa Democratic Party (@iowademocrats): Iowans expect honesty and transparency from our elected officials. We deserve better than @KimReynoldsIA and @RepAshleyHinson’s closed-door meetings trying to sell parents on their voucher scheme. [[link removed]]
