Hey Folks –
If you are a supporter of renewable energy in Iowa, I hope
you will consider making a call of support to your legislator –
The 25% by 2025 RPS is up tomorrow in the Iowa Senate in subcommittee
and might be in the full Natural Resources & Environmental Protection
committee on Thursday for consideration and a vote.
We are trying to generate some calls, e-mails, etc., to the
subcommittee members (Sen. Hogg, Sen. Ragan and Sen. Gaskill. and to
the full committee (see below). The bills are SF2070 and SF2071. There
are two SF2070 is more complex and sponsored by Hogg, SF2071 is very
simple and has 22 Senate Democrats as co-sponsors (Sen. Ragan is a
cosponsor). Read the bills here –

If you are constituents of these senators, please call them at the
senate switchboard – (515) 281-3371 .
Thanks-
