Touting a huge surplus and crediting “Conservative budget practices” reminded me of @IAGovernor’s questionable use of Covid Relief funds as well as things she’s neglected in our state. THREAD:
Let’s start here. bleedingheartland.com/2020/09/13/exc…
Seems legit🙄 desmoinesregister.com/story/news/202…
“Officers have largely carried on routine duties…” thehill.com/homenews/state…
Maybe getting the virus under control would be more helpful? thegazette.com/state-governme…
Something she’s been promising for years, that is definitely necessary, yet she tends to leave out the federal funding when touting this accomplishment. iowacapitaldispatch.com/2021/04/28/rey…
There was a housing crisis long before the pandemic but of course she chooses to address it now (with federal funds) desmoinesregister.com/story/news/pol…
Even in the beginning there was a lot of shady spending. Example👇 thegazette.com/government-pol…
Still an ongoing investigation with the #TestIowa scam. theguardian.com/world/2020/jun…
Another crisis that pre-dated the pandemic finally sees some movement. weareiowa.com/article/life/f…
No money for basic necessities though…
Seems like addressing this would be a good use of our tax dollars.
The woman ignores or underfunds everything. Forgive me if I’m not the least bit impressed with OUR surplus. @OpePac iowacapitaldispatch.com/2020/02/12/we-…
I’ll keep adding to the list as fellow Iowans highlight several other examples of @IAGovernor’s failures…
