Hmmmm! Just a thought. Just remember lawmakers who is really giving you the cash. And that would be us the tax payers of Iowa not special interest groups. Please spend our money in our best interest not those of special interest. We might just cut back on how much we give next time. then we will see if you can run a state on that little bit of money special interest gives to you as so called gifts. Maybe they could just clean up their public polution some.......Hugh......

Unfortunatley this happens. George Carlin said the government is actually the rich businessmen running our lives, not the laws. Makes sense when you think about it.

its all good, as if you wouldn't be wined and dined for showing up to an event, lawmakers are accountable for their actions and if thier decisions are not being influenced by the hosts why not live a little. Please don't be so self righteous to say you wouldn't do it. I say LAW MAKERS HAVE FUN YOU DESERVE TO HAVE A LITTLE FUN The Law makers have to listen to the interest groups anyway why not make it a nice place to hear them out Please, this is not corruption
