We are fortunate to have Mike Gronstal represent us, our students, our schools and our profession. In the current political climate it is vital that you understand that we need YOU.

Crime declined in Iowa in 2009, according to a new report from the Iowa Department of Public Safety.

The Uniform Criminal Report shows that the total number of crimes declined 2.4 percent from 2008 to 2009. Crimes against people (including sexual assaults) decreased 1.3 percent.

Through our work in the Legislature, we’ll continue this positive trend by listening to Iowans and working with our law enforcement professionals who are on the front lines every day. To read the full Uniform Criminal Report, go to www.dps.state.ia.us/commis/ucr/.
