Here's what AG Brenna Bird is celebrating removing from shelves today:

Higher costs from tariffs, gutted health care and the attacks on American cities don’t give confidence to us… What do you think?

NEW: Gov. Reynolds spent millions of federal dollars on a jet instead of help for Iowans. 👀👀👀

She targeted IPERS, starved public schools, and gutted unemployment benefits while living large… Great legacy!!!
