Campaign themes

Sherman's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[3]

Jobs

  • Excerpt: "The best way to help Iowa's employers to begin hiring people and investing in their businesses is to do two things: address property taxes and control government spending."

Family

  • Excerpt: "State government must do what it can to foster the family unit in Iowa. Husbands and wives, raising children together on this great adventure of life."

Education

  • Excerpt: "No more just throwing money at it and no more just shuffling kids through! If a kid is behind, for whatever reason, they must be brought up to speed. We can do it. Teachers need our help to do it, but it can be done."

Faith

  • Excerpt: "Iowa has a rich history of deeply religious citizens. Separation of Church and State doesn't translate into a people with no faith. In fact, our type of government does not function correctly without a people guided by a set of morals established by religious faith. We must continue to encourage faith in Iowa."
