Reynolds presses for quick Kavanaugh decision in Senate
Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds urged the U S Senate to finish work on Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court confirmation, calling the process unconscionable and chaotic. She noted the FBI inquiry and testified that both accuser Christine Blasey Ford and Kavanaugh testified, then urged a decision based on corroborating evidence. Reynolds also discussed confidentiality in state employee complaints, a rewritten harassment policy, and changes tied to a Change the Culture month proclamation.
