Sign up for Supplemental Revenue Assistance Program under way

ALBIA — David Wynn, executive director of USDA’s Monroe-Appanoose FSA, reminds local farmers that sign up for the Supplemental Revenue Assistance Program is underway.

If you suffered a production loss in crop year 2011, contact the FSA office as soon as possible.  Many producers have already applied for the SURE program and a high percentage have been determined eligible for disaster benefits.

To begin the application process for 2011 SURE benefits simply contact the Monroe-Appanoose FSA office at (641) 932-7134, ext 2.

The Iowegian wants readers to think about the debate Rep. Larry Sheets talks about at the state capital centered on "accepting Medicaid expansion as defined by the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), or choosing to create an Iowa specific health care program. Those who prefer the Medicaid expansion believe the federal government will fulfill its commitments three years from now. Those opposing explain that the federal government is only capable of that by borrowing the money from the Chinese." So, the question this week is, "Should Iowa accept the federal government's Medicaid expansion or create a health care program specific to the state?"

A. Accept Medicaid expansion.
B. Create health care program.
