  • Local control of factory farms and other agriculture and environmental policies
  • Raising the minimum wage
  • Closing corporate tax loopholes
  • Getting the corrosive influence of big money out of our political system, and
  • Much, much more.

“I’m excited for this opportunity to get to know Senator Hatch more and what his plans are to create a People First Iowa that puts the common good before corporate greed,” said John Cook, an Iowa CCI Action Fund member from Carroll.The community forum Saturday at 6:30pm at the Carroll Chamber of Commerce is open to the public and media is also invited to attend.
