I’ve been talking with Iowa businesses, hospitals, nursing homes and local leaders about the issues they’re facing right now due to the coronavirus health crisis.
I’ve talked to family and friends back home who are banding together to support one another.
In times of strife, Iowans can count on each other.
Our medical professionals and first responders are under immense pressure and going above and beyond to serve their communities.
I believe they’re doing God’s work keeping the American people safe and healthy.
I thank our medical professionals and first responders for their dedication to their communities and send my encouragement to keep up their essential work in the days and weeks ahead.
