Handouts
We will be inviting Iowa Legislators to the Iowa Nurses Reception, we need your help to let know how much we want them there! A personal invitation from constituents for some face to face time makes all the difference. To help you connect with your lawmaker, we have drafted a letter for you to send inviting your lawmaker to attend.
