Des Moines, Ia- Governor Kim Reynolds says Iowans are united in grief and anger over the death of a black man on a Minneapolis street, and she’s promising to seek systemic change, including steps to address racial profiling.
“I want all Iowans to know that I hear you,” Reynolds says. “I hear your frustration and I am committed to listening and having a respectful dialogue about what we need to address the injustices that are felt by so many and that might mean having some very uncomfortable and eye-opening discussions.”
The governor says she’ll be working with the NAACP and others to develop a final, anti-racial profiling plan to present to the 2021 legislature.
