In his endorsement, King stressed the broad support for the team, saying, “The Governor and Lt. Governor’s vision for building a better Iowa will result in more jobs, less debt, and more opportunity for all our state’s citizens. Governor Kim Reynolds and Lt. Governor Gregg are best positioned to build a better Iowa and lead the Iowa Republican team to victory in 2018. I am confident in their ability to build a strong grassroots campaign to help all Republican candidates be victorious next November, in every corner of the state, up and down the ballot.”
Recently, several distinguished Iowa conservative leaders endorsed the Reynolds-Gregg campaign signaling an unmatched measure of support among Republicans and conservatives across the state.
The Governor and Lt. Governor’s campaign has been rapidly organizing all over the state of Iowa, her campaign claims. The campaign has recruited well over 3,500 county chairs in all 99 counties and that number continues to grow each day. The campaign is Co-Chaired by US Senators Ernst and Grassley, Congressman Rod Blum, Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey, and now Congressman Steve King. This impressive team further shows that the leadership of the party is united in its efforts to build a strong grassroots campaign to help elect Republican leaders up and down the ballot, and ensure that Governor Reynolds and Lt. Governor Gregg can implement their vision for building a better Iowa for many years to come.
