Unfortunately, the California Supreme Court did not come to the same decision as Iowa’s Court regarding marriage equality for everyone. Iowa is a leader in the country regarding civil rights. We welcome everyone to come to Iowa to visit, meet the great people here and enjoy the freedom of equality that should be guaranteed across the country.
Iowa, at times, has felt sheltered from the economic woes of the coastal states and large metropolitan cities. We have begun to feel it of late. Our belts are tightening and jobs have been lost. However, in the midst of this, there is a new hope found in what some would call an unlikely place. Same-sex marriages. In the linked Harvard business School study one can see that in just the next three years Iowa will see, in even this conservative estimate, a 145,000,000 economic boom.
