A Note from Jody and Dennis
It has been a pleasure and privilege working with Bob and
Barb, and though Bob's campaign for U.S. House has ended, we have no doubt
he'll continue to fight for progressive issues, effective government, and
responsible representation from our elected officials.
Fifth District Iowans deserve an "open door, lights on"
policy, and we praise Bob for insisting on that kind of accountability.
We wish Bob and Barb only the very best in health,
happiness, and in all their future endeavors.
