Palmer seeks aid for substance abuse agencies in Cedar Rapids
Democratic lieutenant governor candidate Sen. William Palmer visited treatment facilities in Cedar Rapids to advocate using liquor revenues to fund alcoholism and drug abuse programs. He criticized Gov. Ray for vetoing legislation that would have boosted local funding and argued the state profits from liquor should help address the problem without raising broad taxes. Palmer toured Reality 10 and met with leaders, noting gaps such as no in house medical director and outreach workers while praising the Reality 10 program. He also planned visits to Marty Mann Women’s Halfway House and the Citizens' Committee on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse hosted by county supervisors.
