Mona Martin was first elected as state Representative, HD 43 in 1992
 
[…]
 
Juvenile Justice photograph–Mona did a lot of work in this area. Researched top and worked on revising it. In early 1990s Davenport and across the state communities were having huge problem with juveniles. Police could not photograph juveniles, contact schools and other such activities which could facilitate work in prosecuting juveniles. Martin was heavily involved in task forces. She submitted revision to Juvenile Justice Bill. Was a major part of her early legislative career.
 
Schaffer Pen Company makes Gov. Terry Branstad pens. Each person at a bill signing receives a pen. He utilizes each pen as he signs his name … this often results in the jerking spelling of his name on official documents. Pens are paid for by Gov. Branstad.
