Our big ideas to fight factory farms
On January 16, over 100 Iowans showed up at the capitol to lobby for a moratorium on factory farms until there are fewer than 100 polluted waterbodies.
CCI Action members joined the Iowa Alliance for Responsible Agriculture for a press conference where Senator Johnson and Representative Steckman announced their support for a moratorium and introduced a moratorium bill in each chamber.
Following the press conference, CCI Action members prepared for a series of meetings with key legislative leaders that have important roles to advance the moratorium bill.

Clean water should be a right, not a fight! But with a Governor’s office that’s been up for sale to corporate agribusiness and big polluters, Iowans can’t take the quality of our water for granted anymore.

A pipeline fighter for governor?
I know you care about the pipeline issue in Iowa and I wanted to make sure you saw this.
Last month, the Keystone Pipeline leaked -- pipelines always do -- spilling 210,000 gallons of oil in South Dakota.
I was angry, but I was excited to see one gubernatorial candidate take a strong stand when the news broke. In a wide field of competitors, only Cathy Glasson spoke out.
Sign the petition to unprivatize Iowa’s Medicaid program
Iowa's privatized Medicaid program has been a disaster since day one.
We call on Governor Reynolds to immediately end the privatization of Iowa's Medicaid program and push to guarantee quality healthcare to all Iowans, regardless of employment, income, or health status.
