What's the matter with Iowa? Throwing Iowa women under the bus

 
Headline:  Des Moines Register, 2/27/2024
The bill's floor manager, Rep. Jane Bloomingdale, R-Northwood, called the gender balance requirement "antiquated" and "unnecessary." 
"Gender balance often causes us to eliminate some of the most qualified candidates, and that’s the last thing we want to do," she said. "We want the most qualified candidates to fill positions on our boards, commissions and councils."

OK, so Jane Bloomingdale's name doesn't show up on the list of GOP House leadership.


So who twisted her arm to betray her sex?

Paging Stephen Gruber-Miller.
