Thank youI think the issue is where the funds are coming from for these projects. I guess these don’t count as “blue-state bailouts” - language that she has used to raise campaign funds. Or, maybe Iowa has become a blue state that needs a bailout?
The money comes from the Water Infrastructure Fund (WIF), a state program financed through Iowa’s allocation of Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). The law was signed by President Joe Biden in March 2021.
The American Rescue Plan Act was passed by Democrats, but we’re all paying for it with our federal taxes. She’s doing a good thing with this money and she doesn’t seem to be claiming personal credit for it.I think the issue is where the funds are coming from for these projects.

Are you guys just going to be perpetually pissed off by absolutely every single thing Reynolds does?
No way...chis has a crush on Kim.I think the issue is where the funds are coming from for these projects. I guess these don’t count as “blue-state bailouts” - language that she has used to raise campaign funds. Or, maybe Iowa has become a blue state that needs a bailout?

In an ad that Reynolds used to raise campaign funds, she called the American Rescue Plan Act an “overarching, unconstitutional stimulus bill that does nothing but bail out blue states.”
So….yeah….I’m going to take issue with the hypocrisy.
She returned a bunch of COVID money to the federal gov because she didn’t believe the state needed it….might as well do the same with this…Given her opposition, are you suggesting she should have given the money back? Given the bill passed & Iowa was allocated funds....What SHOULD she have done with the money???
What's worse are the dumb****s voting for them.LOL her and Hinson have some serious guts….the hypocrisy is breathtaking.
I dunno. Maybe she should simply shut her mouth, not profit from her faux opposition to such things, and govern?
I remember a whole bunch of you that freaked out when she did that.She returned a bunch of COVID money to the federal gov because she didn’t believe the state needed it….might as well do the same with this…
They do have the DUI thing in common.No way...chis has a crush on Kim.
No, but I do expect a proper thank you.Of course they are.
Well if they’re handing out money, use it.In an ad that Reynolds used to raise campaign funds, she called the American Rescue Plan Act an “overarching, unconstitutional stimulus bill that does nothing but bail out blue states.”
So….yeah….I’m going to take issue with the hypocrisy.
How about “Lets go Kimbo”?Imagine thinking the 'Covid Kim' moniker was funny or insightful.
"I, as Governor have spearheaded our use of funds from the federal government to do XYZ thing" done. No issues from anyone. She's disingenuous with her framing of the message and you know that.I remember a whole bunch of you that freaked out when she did that.
Now you're freaking out when she does it the other way.
Weird. It's almost like she can't win & you're going to hate her either way...
Be honest where it's coming from would be a good startGiven her opposition, are you suggesting she should have given the money back? Given the bill passed & Iowa was allocated funds....What SHOULD she have done with the money???
It’s coming from all of us. Democrats passed the bill and Republicans tried to stop it, but all of us are paying for it and will be paying for it for many years to come. Don’t pretend this is some sort of gift from Uncle Joe.Be honest where it's coming from would be a good start
I just can’t keep track of the objections.Be honest where it's coming from would be a good start
Odd spinIt’s coming from all of us. Democrats passed the bill and Republicans tried to stop it, but all of us are paying for it and will be paying for it for many years to come. Don’t pretend this is some sort of gift from Uncle Joe.
Why would you use your own money when your mom just hands out money like candy?Also, Iowa is sitting on a $2B surplus. Why does Reynolds need Biden bucks to pay for stuff?
You said you wanted her to be honest about where the money is coming from.Odd spin
We don’t. That’s the effing point. But Joe decided that 7% inflation was worth the votes.Also, Iowa is sitting on a $2B surplus. Why does Reynolds need Biden bucks to pay for stuff?
That you think this is spin is actually hilarious.Odd spin
Never change, TJ. Don’t you ever change.You said you wanted her to be honest about where the money is coming from.
The money is coming from all of us. Everyone who pays taxes to the federal government is paying for it.
Even dumber but not surprising coming from you.How about “Lets go Kimbo”?
Curious... you can't disagree with something but utilize it to benefit your constituents? Do you even politics? The comments in this thread are dumb as if no one has ever followed how political agents have acted the last 100 years. But I know you all would be jerking off to sears magazines in the closet if not for this breaking news. you all need to look in the mirror more than any politician...d or r.LOL her and Hinson have some serious guts….the hypocrisy is breathtaking.
Am I wrong? Are we not all pitching in here?Never change, TJ. Don’t you ever change.
You keep using this line but it's still dishonest. Of course it comes from taxpayers. But it was also opposed by Republicans. The last part is where the dishonesty comes in.Am I wrong? Are we not all pitching in here?
Huey said he wants Kim to be honest about where the money is coming from. So let’s be honest about where the money is coming from. It’s not coming from Uncle Joe and it’s not coming from Aunt Nancy. It’s coming from all of our pockets. Democrats passed the bill but they’re not picking up the check alone. Biden isn’t Santa Claus.
Every one of us is paying for the American Rescue Plan Act whether we supported it or not.
