Sharon has decided to retire from public office, and is proud to pass her legacy onto Jeremy. “I have been so proud to represent northern Iowa, and while I am sad to leave this position, I am so excited to endorse another educator with a passion for our northern Iowa kids! Jeremy True will be an incredible advocate for our kids, education, AEAs, and working families. I know he will do a great job representing the voices of our community at the State House.”
