A gas pipeline from Russia to Germany in the Baltic Sea has been at the top of headlines in recent weeks. I have heard from many Iowans asking what the pipeline is, why it should be shut down, and why they should care about it.
The Nord Stream 2 pipeline is a natural gas pipeline in northern Europe. It would increase the capacity of a previous Nord Stream pipeline to 110 billion cubic meters of natural gas per year. The gas would travel from western Siberia, under the Baltic Sea, to Germany. The project has been completed but has not begun operating.
The Iowa State Fair, planting, harvest, and the High School State Wrestling Tournament are just a few of the times of year special to the great Hawkeye State. Iowans have a deep passion for wrestling and the sport brings all Iowans together in the spirit of competition.
Every year, folks across the state have the pleasure of watching local Iowans compete at the state wrestling tournament in Des Moines. I am very excited to cheer on students from the Second District as the tournament begins this week, and hope for a weekend of close and exciting matches.
