Iowa DE D criticized for promoting Mexican firm over Marshalltown plant
Gubernatorial hopeful Lowell Junkins faulted the Iowa Department of Economic Development for distributing leads about a Monterrey Mexico foundry while Marshalltown’s Gra Iron Foundry cut about half its workforce. DEC officials defended the Trade Opportunity Services Program, noting it shares leads with Kirkwood College Cedar Rapids and uses Commerce data to highlight opportunities for Iowa firms. Junkins urged release of a list of out of state and foreign promoters funded at Iowa firms’ expense.
