The Iowa Corn Growers Association (ICGA) Political Action Committee (PAC) announced they are endorsing 67 candidates for the 2016 election cycle. The PAC was formed more than a decade ago to ensure bipartisan support of Iowa’s corn farmers and to provide them a voice on issues impacting their industry. The PAC includes six farmer-members, three Democrats and three Republicans, who are appointed by the ICGA President. This group objectively evaluates each candidate on their responses to surveys and their voting record. A full listing of the 2016 endorsements can be found with below.
