Still no Iowa OSHA inspector have visited a single Iowa packing plant. https://t.co/BsaG8QGh7E
All <U+2018>forever chemicals<U+2019> detected in Iowa drinking water exceed new safety advisories https://t.co/HTLQXFUigz
f@IAGovernori Reynolds blew it. She trusted failing packing plant CEOs. Now an explosion of infection in Sioux City and Waterloo & CF. First 2 IA plants closed on 4/6. Still NOT a single on-site state OSHA inspection. Why? Bad for f@IowaPorki https://t.co/2q5fzfHnSA
When will @IAGovernor ask OSHA Iowa to inspect its first Iowa packing plant? Maybe Ashton Kutcher could do an inspection? https://t.co/tW1XdapKXU
Even after repeated complaints, NO Iowa OSHA safety inspections at plants. f@IAGovernori Reynolds trusts the CEOs. Would you? Whats it going to take? All plants COVID sick, deaths? Tyson confirms COVID-19 cases at Perry plan, doesn't disclose # https://t.co/JlLtJzNaHT
Every senator received these books. A good laugh at the time. Very well funded climate change denial. Thank god cong Dems just made history w/ climate solutions legis! <U+2066>@SenatorRobHogg<U+2069> Regent gives ISU books denying human role in climate change https://t.co/9UsH9pbLce
81% of Iowa farmers say climate change is occurring, but only 18% see human activities driving it, ISU poll finds https://t.co/4We6M7zpVx via @DMRegister @AOC
The first BIG LIE a couple of decades ago from @GOP leaders was that global warming was a hoax. Their lying denials have cost billions & made the problem much worse. How can we trust corrupt liars like @IAGovernor to fix it now? Can’t! https://t.co/vWNyoruUyi
Sad news this week. Iowa GOP says its time to pull the plug on our bottle deposit law. Iowa longest running, most popular environmental law. They have caved to special interests once again. They need to start listening & fix it! https://t.co/OJI9zv7wFq
