Iowa Community Leaders Speak Out In Support of Impact ’08 in Iowa!
“Here in the heartland, we understand that military power alone cannot keep us safe from terrorism, infectious disease and other global threats that recognize no borders. But there is something we can do to make us more secure – we can extend a hand to countries in need and build partnerships that restore America’s moral leadership in the world.”
Robert Ray – Governor of Iowa
“Iowans care that America is helping save lives, treat people with HIV/AIDS, educate children and create opportunities for the world’s poorest citizens. Greater investments in these programs will reinvigorate America’s moral leadership and global respect.”
Bishop Philip Hougen
“Iowa companies like Pioneer Hi-Bred conduct business all over the world. Pioneer is working with farmers in developed and developing countries to help improve their lives and their communities by increasing farm productivity and profitability, so investing in the stability and prosperity of these nations through U.S. foreign assistance is not only the right thing to do, it helps us here in Iowa.”
Dean Oestreich – Pioneer Hi-Bred
