Lt. Gov. Reynolds and I have set ambitious goals for Iowa, including new jobs, a reduction in government costs and again having the nation’s best schools. However, achieving these goals will not happen unless we as Iowans take care of our bodies and our healthy well-being.
Our goal is to make Iowa the healthiest state in the nation in just five years. The privately led and publicly endorsed Healthiest State Initiative will bring out the best in both the public and private sectors. Making Iowa the healthiest state in the nation is not only critical to the economic viability of our state, but also critical to the quality of life for all Iowans.
