Elect Sheets to House of Representatives

Daily Iowegian

CENTERVILLE — Dear Editor,



I am well acquainted with Larry Sheets.

He is a devoted family man with a wife and eight children.  He is a member of the Moulton-Udell School Board.

He is a very intelligent man, having applied for and received 15 patents while he worked as an engineer in the states of Illinois and Massachusetts. He has worked for AT&T, Rockwell International and Teltrend.

He had a big part in bringing MTI to Moulton, which added needed jobs to that community. He traveled to North Dakota to help accomplish that task.

Larry has three college degrees: A bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, a master's degree in electrical engineering and a master's degree in business administration. He has also taught at three different colleges.

I feel that he is well qualified and would make an excellent addition to the Iowa House.

Larry Sheets does not want to get rid of the Department of Agriculture. Larry does not want to ship jobs overseas.

And in reference to a letter printed in Tuesday's Iowegian, Larry has never stated that "it's his idea to give more tax breaks to rich people in order to create jobs for the rest of us."

It's fine to support a certain candidate, but please don't say things that are not true about the other candidate.

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.
