Sixteen years ago we played Utah in Jack Trice Stadium. Coach Rhoads selected our son James as one of his team captains. James was going through cancer treatments at the time. Coach Rhoads ultimately created what is now a game day tradition - Having a Kid Captain.

On Jan 5, I created the Iowa Nuclear Energy Task Force to evaluate opportunities for the industry in our state.
Today, the final report confirms that Iowa is positioned to lead, with an advanced manufacturing base, skilled workforce, and culture of energy innovation.
Nuclear is vital to Iowa’s future, and I remain committed to advancing solutions that fuel energy independence and economic growth.
