Kelley’s continued leadership is needed

Francis Thicke

I commend Jasper County residents for having elected Dan Kelley as their state representative to the Iowa Legislature in the past, and encourage you to re-elect him.

Dan is a leader in environmental and water quality issues in the state legislature. He has good common sense and an understanding of the issues. I recall statewide media coverage of a water quality hearing in the statehouse in which Dan Kelley was the only representative who had the wherewithal to ask key questions about how Iowa’s water quality goals could be met. His continued leadership is needed.

I am pleased that Dan is running a positive campaign, and I urge you to send him back to the statehouse, for the benefit of Jasper County and all of Iowa.
