After Wednesday morning's inauguration of Governor Kim Reynolds, Senate Minority Leader Rob Hogg tells WHO Radio News he's guardedly optimistic that the new Governor will live up to her words to work with the minority party. He's complaining that Republicans ran roughshod over Democrats this past session. But, the Cedar Rapids Democrat says his party is on board with the new Governor's agenda as spelled out in her speech: simplifying the tax code, education, energy and training the skilled workforce of the 21st century.
And, WHO Radio News also caught up with Attorney-General Tom Miller and asked what he would do if Governor Reynolds does name a new Lieutenant-Governor to replace her. Miller says 'let's just wait and see what happens (Thursday)'.
