Reynolds says Iowa industry is protecting workers, ‘doing the right thing’

Gov. Kim Reynolds saluted local employers for acting responsibly through the COVID-19 crisis and said the state is relying on those “partners” to protect food-plant employees and other essential workers.

“You know, I think employers are doing the right thing and they need to continue to do the right thing,” Reynolds told the Bellevue Herald-Leader. “We’re going to continue to work with them and be a partner. We want to make sure individuals take individual responsibility.”
