Leonard Boswell Nation Quotations

Our nation was founded on the principals of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

As the 29th state to join the United States of America, it is our turn to show the nation what represents Iowa. Our commitment to quality education, hard work, and small-town values are all represented in the Iowa quarter.

We must strive to ensure that the United States is a nation that values diversity, where we stand together as one people, as equal people.

Put this subject matter right out here on the table in broad daylight and look at how other countries do it. Bring in the best experts we have in this nation - and we surely have a lot of them - and have that public discussion. And the end of it, I think we'd come up with what the United States could do to ensure that everybody's got health care.
