Work mandates can work in Iowa
There are more than 50,000 job openings in the state of Iowa today.
Yet only about two in three able-bodied Iowans are working in a job today, with more than 53,000 total unemployed and tens of thousands more gone from the labor force because they haven’t looked in so long. Iowa’s problem is a shortage of workers, not a shortage of work.
Gov. Kim Reynolds has been working to find ways address this problem, strengthen Iowa’s economy, and help families pay the bills. Gov. Reynolds should be praised for embracing work requirements for taxpayer benefits.
