Republican Party of Iowa Chairman Jeff Kaufmann released the following statement in response to Gov. Kim Reynold's signing of her landmark school choice bill HF 68:

"When Gov. Kim Reynolds and Iowa Republicans campaigned on 'parents matter', it wasn't just a slogan. Reynolds and Statehouse Republicans put parents and students first when they kept our schools open despite the hysteria, and they're putting parents and students first yet again with their historic school choice bill.

"The leadership of Reynolds and Statehouse Republicans is cementing Iowa as the State upon a Hill for families to thrive and for students to achieve their potential."
