The Democrat and the Libertarian who are running for Iowa’s U-S Senate seat say it’s time to curb the politicial power of economic elites. Radio Iowa’s O. Kay Henderson reports.
Democrat Josh Turek spoke at the Des Moines Register’s Political Soapbox at the Iowa State Fair, promising to support legislation in the U-S Senate that would require corporations to reveal political spending to shareholders.
Turek says billionaires and corporations are corrupting the political process. Libertarian candidate Thomas Laehn (like “LANE”) spoke at the Soapbox Saturday. Laehn criticized the political action committees that are supporting Turek’s campaign as well as the donors who are backing Republican Congresswoman Ashley Hinson’s U-S Senate campaign.
Ashley Hinson is scheduled to visit the State Fair later today (Monday).
