Stokes will provide fresh ideas in Des Moines

As a parent of three young children, and also foster parent to several other children, I see many challenges that face us in rural Floyd County and Iowa House District 52.Access to extra-curricular activities, high standard of education, mental health availability, and economic growth are all issues that face us and are a concern to me as my children and the children in my home grow and develop. These are issues that Stacie Stokes understands well and is ready and able to address with her strong background in education.Education is the most fundamental building block in addressing each of the issues that are being faced by our communities. Stacie Stokes also has the rare ability of listening, not just hearing, but truly listening to people and the situation they are in and what they need to move forward.Stacie Stokes will provide fresh insight and enthusiasm, allowing for much needed change and growth for our rural communities.Please join me in voting for Stacie Stokes for Iowa House District 52.
