I wrote in this space yesterday that many of Iowa’s elected officials and those challenging them were silent about the recent egg recall by two huge Iowa production facilities.
A lot can change in 24 hours. While the links below may not be complete, many have spoken in the last few hours and it is only fair that I update my comments to show this.
Former Governor Terry Branstad had harsh words for DeCoster farms on WHO-TV.
Agriculture Secretary Bill Northey was quoted in an online TIME piece.
Northey’s challenger Francis Thicke released a statement.
Senator Chuck Grassley spoke to Radio Iowa.
Still silent are Governor Chet Culver and Senate challenger Roxanne Conlin.
