    Boswell campaign mailer focuses on economy

    by: desmoinesdem

    My husband and I both got direct-mail pieces from Congressman Leonard Boswell today.

    I noticed that Boswell for Congress paid for this one, as opposed to the last three campaign-style mailers, which American taxpayers funded.

    The front shows a large color photo of Boswell, with a smaller black-and-white photo of George W. Bush in the upper left corner. The text reads:

    While Bush squandered a strong economy...

    Leonard Boswell
    has been a
    CHAMPION for Iowa's middle class

    When you open the mailer, page 2 consists of a large photo of Boswell standing next to a worker. The text at the bottom reads:

    Congressman Leonard Boswell
    DELIVERS for the middle class

    Page three has three photos of Boswell talking with small groups of men and women. The text on the rest of the page reads:

    Leonard Boswell is working to end the Bush recession

    -Voted to increase the minimum wage and to support small business
    -Helping reduce the cost of health insurance for small businesses through tax credits
    -Working to balance the budget and provide tax relief to Iowa's working families
    -Creating thousands of future jobs for Iowans with new ethanol and renewable fuel standards

    Leonard Boswell
    Taking on George Bush for the Changes We Need

    The back page has a photo of Boswell with his wife Dody. The text reads:

    Congressman Boswell is working for Iowa's new economy
    -Making Iowa a leader in he green jobs revolution
    -Creating high paying, new energy jobs
    -Helping reduce the cost of health insurance for small businesses through tax credits
    -Increasing the minimum wage
    -Providing tax relief to Iowa's working families

    Democratic Primary - June 3rd

    The bottom has contact information for the campaign as well as the notice, "Paid for by Boswell for Congress."
