Letter to the Editor: Submitted by Cristina Smith

To the Editor:

I appreciate Ashley Hinson voting to keep the government open and operating for Iowans. The letter published a couple weeks ago failed to include the facts that House and Senate Democrats are keeping the government closed over providing healthcare for illegal aliens and providing hundreds of millions of tax dollars to NPR and PBS.

Ashley has worked hard to expand access to healthcare for Iowans - she supports keeping premiums low, improving maternal health care, and expanding telehealth options for rural Iowans. It’s unfortunate that Democrats are playing politics with healthcare instead of working on common sense solutions.

I appreciate Ashley fighting for Iowans in DC. She is doing exactly what we elected her to do.
