News from Iowa Congressman David Young Home About Me Media Center Services Contact Friends, One of the highest honors of my life is to serve the people, families, friends and neighbors of Iowa in the U.S. House of Representatives. Each and every day, whether I am in Washington D.C. or any of our three Iowa offices, I am reminded who I work for - the people of Iowa’s Third Congressional District. In fact, the first thing folks see when visiting any of our four constituent service offices is a sign near each front door which reads: “ This office belongs to the people of Iowa’s 3rd District. Welcome! ” This sign, along with the hundreds of meetings I have with thousands of Iowans a year, reminds me of the most vital responsibility I have as your U.S. Representative - to serve as a resource for my bosses. I think it’s safe to say that working with the government is not always the easiest thing to do. As I travel across the district, I often hear from Iowans about h...

a family who knows my dad, knows my last name, knows I'm in the phone book, and their son worked with Alec in high school, their son graduation party, invitation sent to my parents, to Dave, Judy, and Alec. At a dance, older couple comes up to Alec and me, says to me, Oh, that's the Fletcher boy, right? Call up to the high school to get immunization records that might still be there for Alec, receptionist goes to look, comes back on the phone, Judy, we may have them, but they were sent with his diploma, if you can look through your records.

Sheri, you also don't know what was said about you to that lawyer when they said he was living with his biological mother but they were doing guardianship. Was it forced indirect aggression against you?

You're the best year of your life working a full time job, and a part time job, doing so much socially, intellectually, mentally, couldn't anybody have said You're about to take a fall?

that lawyer that gave you advice to start a Trust Fund for Alec did you a grave disservice, and I'd like to report him. He sits on 100K or more a year, and think those on limited income should start paying for a future that might not ever come. 200 dollars a month you put into it from mileage you get for taking Alec might not seem like a lot to this guy, but it would mean a lot to me.

  It might seem strange after all I've endured to basically want to know who gave our government agencies the authority, equipment, ability to sustain such a program for so long with so many involved in mass media and so much work on the part of suspects to get out of it. Yes, I want my legal rights, but I also want to able to look my executioner in the eyes, who allowed all this, gave it justification or spent millions? I already know I'm in it, and might not get out of it, but knowing who's responsible is the way I want it to end.

I will do so, thank you. More specifically, and not necessarily legal representation, but the truth into these massive watchdog lists, and whether THEY have the legal right to do so by some court, judge, governing branch.... my surveillance started before the Patriot Act.

April 28, 2017 Ms. Grutz: This is in response to your April 13, 2017 letter.  The legal subject matters of privacy and government surveillance is outside of our expertise.   We also do not provide legal advice or assistance.   To assist you,  I would suggest if you ask the Iowa ACLU whether you have the legal rights to know whether or not you are on a government watch list or being watched by a government agency  You can reach them by email at   legal.program@aclu-ia.org .    If you request information, they may be able to provide you a publication on your privacy and surveillance rights.

new sketch (by sheri) the man at the phone company walked through so many yellow pages of days just to see who'd be there to sell their soul and he called up the banker and the lawyer and the florist but all they gave him was a rain check he thought, Well, maybe I can get my feet wet now Lucy was a woman he could plant kisses with and get baked and drive the moon over steep rooves he told her he had her number everyone did she was highlighted in everyone's line of work I'll make you a deal, she told him, if you can bring me work, I'll take a page out of your book so he did what he could delivering year after year but she told him one day, the dessert is too rich and the coffee is too strong, and they say the smokes and the beer are imported so he stripped more than his clothes but the vanish from the wood, but she said, it's too rough and buckled and won't bur...

The song of spring (by sheri grutz) The song a heart made of ribbon made the head go soft against the hard rain not a hat but a bow when he said it was his gift to carry every day gives what they can't tie up throwing arms around the world the sun rising pitched in the sky and the words melt the packed surface a song dances through trees the lips of pots overflowing but if his shattered dream was glass he'd learn to pierce his mark The ocean (by sheri grutz) Sand slips through holes in her life in a box a pebble stays in the shoe finding this shore was any unearth to layers in her mind gone deep it is the same for miles moving mountains and terrain and planted stars water collects in her small step moving vastness and energy a rush of birds or runner or explaining that wind she is a child pushing off the vessel and drifting away

We went wandering through death for the first time of many and found the trinket made of stone it was the birth stone laid against waters as always a fish on the dash said Jesus I pulled a rainbow from a tear and put it under a scope and it looked like veins curled around that baby in my arms a cell electric as a flash of sun on a crystal of ice the distance of the sky a shimmering and highlighted star set in the mouth of the river there was a word that turned green to brown when I heard day fall through the net of praying hands or it was a hole in my heart that couldn't be empty enough

Steve, there was a woman in this town who worked at Travel Mart, she came to visit me for services, she has bipolar. Me, and many, many others saw what happened at that job, she was literally forced out of it. These prominent men who own these places in town come to my house and want me to give them 45 dollars to erect a flag in my yard, the O'Neil's, the Schnurr's, etc. some of these people I have known all of my life. I went to everyone at Guardian Glass to report harassment verbally over mental illness.  Nothing was done I know that departments in this town, Kevin Lake or others hate the mere thought of me being here, and I guess they can take their healthy job and healthy life all the way to the bank from suckers like us.

Once a Republican asked for 5 dollars for lunch, he said, I'm sure I can get friends. Someone called out, Not good for your liver, and he thought, I didn't think people cared, it's all I've ever seen and known and talked about.

You have said in an interview and even hinted at it when not that you have signs of mental illness. Think again about Equal Opportunity Employer.

Honey you know I'm your lapdog for you You know I don't like the heat Nothing just some stray accusations I only like the look and the feel Maybe I should let go of bitterness I never questioned your taste I only want to challenge every upper hand I bet you say that to all the boys in hand to hand combat If I can't make a difference then I'll become Become what Something like my own mother

poem being watched and being watched poem by sheri dream against green is hidden outline of a length not to naked eye no few words exposed imagine the dying light not followed I know you have no shell my killer look will take you chlorophyll pushed the mountain out of your mind the climbing hours don't surrender each step loose as charming men in their peak this apple tree white confetti birth of birds nature sucks the tit of a cluster of stars alright foreign body take the next river in your heavy and make this distance disappear

'Allen Ginsberg Forgives Ezra Pound on Behalf of the Jews' December 9, 2010 By  Rodger Kamenetz Each Thursday, The Arty Semite features excerpts and reviews of the best contemporary Jewish poetry. This week,  Rodger Kamenetz  introduces his poem “Allen Ginsberg Forgives Ezra Pound on Behalf of the Jews.” This piece originally appeared on December 7, 2001, as part of the Forward’s Psalm 151 series. It is being published here online for the first time. Getty Images Celebrating one year of editing Psalm 151 for the Forward, I hope readers will forgive me if I add a poem of my own to the mix. “Allen Ginsberg Forgives Ezra Pound on Behalf of the Jews” is a verse essay, a form that allows the exploration of ideas and associations as well as the use of documentary material. The stepping off point for the poem is a 1992 interview I did with Allen Ginsberg while writing “The Jew in the Lotus,” when Ginsberg made very clear his deep Jewish roots, but also his strong ...

To Poetry Don’t desert me just because I stayed up last night watching  The Lost Weekend . I know I’ve spent too much time praising your naked body to strangers and gossiping about lovers you betrayed. I’ve stalked you in foreign cities and followed your far-flung movements, pretending I could describe you. Forgive me for getting jacked on coffee and obsessing over your features year after jittery year. I’m sorry for handing you a line and typing you on a screen, but don’t let me suffer in silence. Does anyone still invoke the Muse, string a wooden lyre for Apollo, or try to saddle up Pegasus? Winged horse, heavenly god or goddess, indifferent entity, secret code, stored magic, pleasance and half wonder, hell, I have loved you my entire life without even knowing what you are or how—please help me—to find you.
