Spirit Lake, IA (KICD)– State Senator Dave Rowley has received his committee assignments for the next legislative session. The Spirit Lake Republican says many will allow him to tackle the issue of bringing more workers to Iowa.

Rowley says the big issues will be school vouchers and property tax reform, and eminent domain is an issue specifically affecting his district.

And Rowley says rural Iowa is affected by a discrepancy in Medicare reimbursement.

Dave Rowley serves Senate District number five, which is Dickinson, Emmet, Palo Alto, Kossuth, and northern Clay Counties.
