Some fast facts about the State of Reynold’s State:

• Unemployment rates in blue states like California, New York, and Illinois were nearly double Iowa’s rate.
• 2020 job losses in blue states like California, New York, and Illinois nearly doubled Iowa’s rate.

Despite a global pandemic that crippled economies across the country, her balanced approach resulted in a swift recovery for the state of Iowa. Tonight, Governor Reynolds will offer hope and a way forward for all Americans under strong state leadership from Republican governors.”
