What if I told you that Warren County, Iowa, was the center of the universe? Everyday you are bombarded with headlines, all demanding to be taken very seriously. They command you to be very concerned about all the very important goings-on in the great halls of power. They tell you that significant events are happening in that far off land called Washington and that golden dome just north of here. But they’re wrong!
The Pyramid Is Upside Down
The media portrays the news as a kind of pyramid with the really important stuff happening on a global scale. A step down on this hierarchy is the national stage, with all its excitement and buzz. Far below that are state issues. This system dismisses county and local issues as the mundane world of potholes and property taxes. With so many important issues facing our nation and globe, what happens in a little county in Iowa seems quaint at best. Irrelevant at worst.

But what if they have the pyramid upside down? What if it’s the global, national, and state policies that are relatively unimportant when compared to what happens in your county and town? What if your county matters because you matter?

You Need A Voice
That’s why it’s so important for you to be informed and empowered with what’s going on in your community. With all the noise in the world, Warren County needs a voice; a voice that promotes freedom, family, and flourishing.

Together we will give a voice to the issues that affect you most, connecting you to your community and empowering you to make a difference.
