Although, according to The Des Moines Register's Iowa Poll, 64 percent of 
Iowans want local control for siting concentrated animal feeding operations 
(CAFOs), legislators are not hearing from their constitutents that it is an 
issue.

Below is a list of the legislative forums scheduled for this weekend.  
Please attend if you can and let your legislators know that you want 
stronger legislation for the siting of CAFOs.
