Dear Friends,
January 16th is the Iowa Caucus. I strongly encourage you to head out to
your local caucus location and make your opinions known. You can find
out more information about your party's caucus locations by checking out
the Iowa Democratic Party web site:
http://www.iowademocrats.org/2006caucus/ or the Iowa Republican
Party web site:
http://www.iowagop.org/Caucuses/. I don’t know about the Green
Party. It is vital to our democratic system that all people participate
in the process.
All Iowa Democratic Caucuses start at 6:30 p.m. The 2006 Republican
Caucuses are this Monday, January 16th at 7:00 p.m. Check your counties
website for more information on time and location.
As caucus attendees, you will have the chance to speak out for our three
pronged approach to tobacco control (Tobacco
Tax, Smokefree Environments,
and
Funding for comprehensive tobacco control).
I encourage you to participate in the county and district conventions.
These conventions help fine tune the party platform and candidate
support. I encourage you to move forward to the county and district
convention as well to support the ideas that will help lead Iowa towards
a healthy future.
We know that the majority of Iowans support an increased tobacco tax,
smokefree environments, and tobacco prevention. These are universal
values that all Iowan’s can agree on. Attached are resolutions on these
three issues which you can introduce at your caucus.
Thank you for your continued support.
