— On Tuesday, May 20, Ed Fallon will hold events in all 12 counties in the 3rd Congressional District on his New Energy for Iowa Tour.
Fallon will spend half-hour at each event to talk about those parts of his agenda that will focus on revitalizing our small towns and local neighborhoods.
Fallon will appear in Oskaloosa at 10 a.m. at the Bandstand in the city square.
“We need incentives to support downtowns, Main Streets, and locally-owned businesses that will stay in Iowa. More than anything, government needs to end the practice of doling our billions of dollars in tax breaks and subsidies to big business that often end up leaving Iowa. As a congressman, I pledge to work hard to make rural economic development a priority,” Fallon said.
