Iowa Needs You!
Lt. Gov. Patty Judge will call on Iowa women today to donate their time and energy by serving on a local board or commission and announce guides to assist women in learning more about those kinds of opportunities. According to a survey by the Iowa Commission on the Status of Women, women make up 18 percent of membership across four economically related county boards. Earlier this year, Gov. Chet Culver signed into law House File 243, which will require gender balance on all local boards and commissions by Jan. 1, 2012. Judge will hold a press conference on the issue at 4:30 p.m. at the West Des Moines City Council Chamber, 4200 Mills Civic Parkway.
