Letter to the Editor: Supporting Christina Bohannon

Ads against Christina Bohannon say she is too “dangerous and disturbing” and even wants to “abolish prisons and police.” Law enforcement officers support her though. I think they meant that she wants to protect an individual’s rights.

I’ve gone to her rallies and she also wants these:

1. Make Iowa Number 1 in Education and give the kids lunch even in the summer.

2. Bring down the price of healthcare and prescription drugs, create jobs, improve our infrastructure and reduce the national debt.

3. Clean up our waterways and help farmers invest in sustainable farming.

4. Have universal background checks for firearms, no guns for domestic abusers and no illegal gun trafficking.

5. Have a Farm Bill that supports farmers not big cooperations.

6. Reform Immigration and get the bipartisan security bill passed

7. Restore Roe v. Wade and restore reproductive freedom

8. Protect Medicare and Social SecurityThis all seems good to me.

I don’t see anything that is “dangerous and disturbing.”
