Corning local supports Bill Schafer

Bill Schafer, a conservative and retired colonel from the U.S. Army is running for the House of Representatives seat for Iowa’s 3rd district that Cindy Axne currently holds. David Young, who previously held the seat and lost to Cindy Axne in the last election, is also a conservative, but he’s spent most of his adult life in politics. Why would Iowans want to cast their vote for someone who has already lost to the incumbent once before?

Bill’s website is full of information regarding his life story and his views on the important issues we all have questions about. I was able to learn he strongly supports our Constitutional rights and takes special notice to our 1st, 2nd and 10th Amendment rights. I was able to learn he believes our national security should be a priority as he supports not only a continuous wall on our southern border but also supports our border patrol taking all means necessary to enforce our immigration laws. Perhaps the best thing I learned about Bill was that his support for service or term limits for our United States Congress. No more lifelong politicians with their political party money paying for advertising on their campaigns eliminating the chance for anyone else to unseat them. By the way, Bill and his wife Robin have contributed out of their own pockets for his campaign along with small individual donations as it appears the Republican Party of Iowa has backed David Young.

David Young’s website has no information regarding his stances and views. To find this information, I was forced to go to third party websites. Let’s just say he and Bill don’t necessarily carry all of the same views on the topics. If you want to know more I’ll let you dig for David’s information yourself.

Why would David Young not make it easy for his constituents to research him? Because he doesn’t feel he has to try to win your votes. If he isn’t going to take the time to win my vote, I’m not going to waste my vote on him. Vote for Bill Schafer in the primary June 2. He obviously cares more about our votes than David does.
