Letter from Adam Zabner: Rod Sullivan is one of the good ones
Iowa needs more compassionate, strong leaders. Supervisor Rod Sullivan is one of the good ones and has earned my support. Rod is a fighter.

While our state government has failed to increase the minimum wage, Rod has fought for workers in Johnson County to get a raise.
