TJ Templeton for IOWA's 3rd District

Written by: Leslie Chasse on May 25, 2008 8:19 PM EDT

I think it's about time that the people of Iowa had a voting alternative besides someone who's loyalties are to the business interests first.

A few small facts about Iowa's 3RD district representative, Mr. Soderberg(R) who with the Republican party has occupied this seat unopposed for 12 years now...

1] Soderberg voted against the Iowa energy fund and the Office of Iowa Energy Independence.

2] Soderberg has an obvious conflict of interest being vice president of legislative planning for a utility company connected to out-of-state coal interests.

3] Soderberg signed onto a letter on the House floor last January claiming that he wouldn't vote for any legislation intended to address global warming, claiming that it would actually harm our economy.

4] Soderberg is a big global warming denier, as well as the claim that cigarettes are not harmful.

5] Soderberg claims to be for renewable energy but his voting record says just the opposite.

Clearly Mr. Soderberg does a fine job of representing the dinosaur industry. Isn't it about time the people of District 3 had someone who would work for and represent them?

TJ Templeton could be a great lobbyist for the PEOPLE of Iowa,

if given the chance!
