Liz Mathis kicks off Iowa Senate reelection campaign [View all]
CEDAR RAPIDS — Sen. Liz Mathis has kicked off her campaign for a third full term in the Iowa Senate to continue work on expanding health care and preparing young Iowans for 21st-century jobs.
“We still have more work to do to ensure expanded access to mental health care, support Iowa’s small businesses and make more opportunities for family farmers,” said Mathis, a former television news anchor who first was elected to the Senate in a 2011 special election. She now works for a child welfare agency that helps troubled kids and their families.
A Hiawatha Democrat, Mathis is running in Senate District 34, which includes parts of Marion, Hiawatha, Robins, Cedar Rapids, Bertram, Ely and southern Linn County.
More than ever, she said in announcing her reelection campaign, “we need to keep Iowa on an improvement track in health care, education and employment.”
