Iowa USDA Rural Development Director to Run for Iowa Senate

That would be Annette Sweeney, who served in the Iowa House from 2009 - 2013 and was Chair of the House Ag Committee.  Sweeny was recently appointed to the USDA position by President Trump after speculation she may run for Iowa Secretary of Agriculture.  She tells WHO Radio's Bob Quinn she's left that position Tuesday to run for the Iowa Senate in District 25 following the resignation of Republican Majority leader Bill Dix.  As you probably know, he was caught on video kissing a lobbyist in a Des Moines bar back on March 1st.
