Campaign themes

2016

Bangert's campaign website highlighted the following issues:

Jobs

  • Susan will fight to make Iowa a place where companies want to invest, entrepreneurs are encouraged to innovate, and community colleges are prepared to inspire, so that every Iowan has access to the jobs of the 21st century.

Education

  • Susan has worked in Iowa schools for over 30 years as a speech pathologist. She knows the difference that a great education can make in the life of Iowa kids, and she will dedicate herself to making sure every Iowa kid gets that opportunity.

Mental health

  • Too many of our friends and neighbors struggle with mental health, and yet lack the support they need from their state government. Susan will fight to make sure mental healthcare is affordable and accessible to anyone and everyone who needs it.[1]
