Letter for Rob Hubler

...The current financial crisis our country is facing has also caused many voters to contemplate how fortunate we are that Congress rejected the call by George Bush, and supported by Steve King, to privatize our Social Security system. Imagine the billions of dollars that would have evaporated if they had succeeded in turning our trust funds over to the Wall Street speculators. I will make sure voters know that I will fight to make sure their Social Security funds will be there for them.

As word spreads about the Republican Party turning their backs on ethanol production, and their opposition to the farm bill, many loyal GOP supporters have told me that they will be voting for me this time around. Our rural communities have a huge stake in the continued production of ethanol and wind energy to create good jobs and reduce our dependence on foreign oil. On this issue, as with so many others, voters have a clear choice between Steve King and myself.

I have accepted an invitation to participate in a candidate forum to be broadcast statewide by Iowa Public Radio on Oct. 30th. Thus far, Steve King has refused to defend his record in Congress and it will be interesting to see if he dodges this event. Regardless, I intend to continue letting voters know of the stark differences in our two approaches to representing the people of the 5th district...

Peace and justice,
Rob L. Hubler
