Talking Veterans’ Issues at the Capitol

 

(Des Moines) – Senator Ron Wieck (R-Sioux City) along with Representatives Huseman and Soderberg met with Dana Evans and Leroy Jenness of the Cherokee County Commission of Veterans Affairs, to discuss issues important to Iowa veterans.

 

“It’s important that as legislators we take the time to listen to our veterans and work with them to develop good policy that will help today’s veterans as well as our future veterans,” said Senator Wieck.

 

Among the veterans' issue priorities this year: full funding for the Iowa Veterans Home in Marshalltown and exempting all military income received by National Guard, Reserve Forces, or U.S. Armed Forces from state income taxes while on Federal Active Duty.

 

The legislature has a committee exclusively devoted to veterans' issues.
