ELECTION OF SPEAKER
Eddie of Buena Vista presented the name of the Honorable Brent
Siegrist of Pottawattamie County as candidate for Speaker of the
House of Representatives of the Seventy-eighth General Assembly,

preceding such nomination with the following remarks:
Mr. Speaker, I wish to place in nomination the Honorable Brent Siegrist of
Pottawattamie County as Speaker.
I'm sure everyone here knows that I'm not one who likes to hear himself talk so this
will be relatively brief. There isn't anything that I can say here about Brent that every
person in here doesn't already know. I can remember back when I first came in to the
legislature thirteen years ago, and we were in the minority. I remember seeing Brent
going around to the different legislators - it didn't make any difference whether they
were Republican or Democrat and visiting all of them. I found out shortly though that
what he was doing was looking for food or candy. But I think Brent is probably
considered the ultimate consensus maker around here. I feel very humble, and it is
with a great deal of pride and pleasure that I nominate Brent Siegrist as Speaker of
the Iowa House.
Sukup of Franklin seconded the nomination of Brent Siegrist for
Speaker of the House, preceded by the following remarks:
Thank you Mr. Speaker. I'd like to second the nomination of Brent Siegrist for
Speaker. Brent demonstrates each day from the Iowa House floor the ability to provide
leadership, confidence and organization to our legislative process. Okay, maybe the
organization part is Susan. I've always found Brent straightforward and candid on
difficult issues. Even on topics where we might philosophically disagree, we can trust
his judgement and his answers. Brent's dedication to the Iowa House as Speaker will
keep our peoples' chamber respected throughout the House and throughout the state.
The Iowa House of Representatives' members as well as the state of Iowa will benefit
from Brent's leadership and friendship. Speaker Siegrist in the Iowa House will be a
great man.
Schrader of Marion seconded the nomination of Brent Siegrist for
Speaker of the House, preceded by the following remarks:
Mr. Speaker, I wish to second the nomination of Brent Siegrist of Pottawattamie
County as Speaker. And I rise to second the nomination of my friend Representative
Siegrist even though I fear that if he is successful today he perhaps hasn't thought
through exactly what he's doing. Representative Siegrist you are now doomed to have a
coat and tie on all day long every day of the session in that Speaker's chair. That will
be a real sacrifice, and I appreciate you making it for the members.
Brent's willingness to consider the concerns of others in the day to day operations of
this chamber have really made this a better place to work - particularly because of
that trait that you have Representative Siegrist of listening to others when they have a
concern and doing your best to accommodate that person in that concern. It's made this
a better place. I know that is a trait that you will take to the Speaker's chair when you
assume that responsibility, and Democrats wish you success and a productive session
or sessions whichever your reign may be. Mr. Speaker, I move that the Chief Clerk be
authorized to cast the vote of all the members of the Seventy-eighth General Assembly
for the Honorable Brent Siegrist as Speaker of the House.
In accordance with the foregoing motion, the Chief Clerk cast the

votes of all the members of the House of Representatives for the
Honorable Brent Siegrist as Speaker of the House of Representatives
of the Seventy-eighth General Assembly. The Honorable Brent
Siegrist of Pottawattamie County, having received all of the votes
cast for the office of Speaker of the House of Representatives of the
Seventy-eighth General Assembly, was declared duly elected to that
office.
Eddie of Buena Vista moved that a committee of two be appointed
to escort the Speaker to the chair.
The motion prevailed and the following committee was appointed:
Drake of Pottawattamie and Myers of Johnson.
PRESENTATION OF SPEAKER
The Honorable Brent Siegrist was escorted to the Speaker's station
and, having been sworn, assumed the chair. Speaker Corbett of Linn
presented Speaker Siegrist with the gavel and congratulated him on
his unanimous election.
Speaker Siegrist thanked the House for the honor bestowed upon
him and offered the following remarks:
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I want to thank the members of the House for allowing me the great honor of
serving as the Speaker of this great institution. I am humbled and excited that the
members of the Republican Caucus as well as the members of the Democratic Caucus
have allowed me the opportunity to serve the General Assembly as the Speaker of this
entire House.
I don't intend to take much of your time this afternoon talking to you because I am
hopeful that in the next day or two we will be adjourning for the year. I'll have some
additional comments then as I always do as the year winds down, and I'll have some
observations at that point but for now basically just two things.
First, our jobs in this body demand sacrifices back home in our other lives. We all
have a difficult job balancing this place with family and friends. The job of Speaker as
well as Majority Leader is very demanding, as well as the Minority Leader. It takes a
lot of time away to do this job properly. My wife, Valerie, and my son, Evan, are here
today. It wouldn't be possible for me to serve in the legislature, let alone as Speaker,
without their love and support. To Val, Evan, and my daughter Harriet who isn't here
today, all seven months of her, I love you very much and I thank you for the sacrifices
you make to let me serve here. I couldn't do it without you.
The tragedy in Colorado has left many of us looking for answers as to how such a

senseless act of violence could have happened. While there are probably many
answers, the most important answer is parents. I was fortunate to be raised by two
loving and caring human beings. My parents, Bob and Nancy, are here today to share
in this ceremony. I want to thank them for what they've done for me, and I only hope I
can be as good of a parent as they were.
Lastly, I want to let the members know that I realize that I now serve as the
Speaker of this entire House. That's a pretty awe-inspiring thing to do but this is a
great family. We've seen it time and time again this year as we've had tragedies visited
upon various individuals in this place. And Representative Schrader, you're right. I
hate having this coat on. I don't intend to spend that much time up here the next day
or two because I still consider it Ron Corbett's session as Speaker. But as I sit up here I
will do my level best to be fair and respectful to everyone in the Iowa House. We will
have differences, but to move this great state forward we will have to work together in
this House to accomplish our goals. Thank you very much.
ELECTION OF SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE
Dix of Butler placed in nomination the Honorable Steven E. Sukup
as candidate for Speaker pro tempore of the House of Representatives
of the Seventy-eighth General Assembly, preceding his nomination
with the following remarks:
I nominate Steven E. Sukup of Franklin County for the office of Speaker pro
tempore. Colleagues it is a distinct pleasure and honor that I have this opportunity to
place the name of Steve Sukup in nomination for Speaker pro tempore this afternoon.
And as I contemplated my remarks here, I also would provide for a moment of
reflection. It's often been said and we've often heard it that we are truly family here. As
we gather today for this occasion it is obvious in my mind that we truly are family.
During these last few days of session, with the tensions that are there and how we go
out of here unified together, the leadership is altogether fitting and proper. I think
Steve has demonstrated an ability, a number of which leadership skills entail. But
more specifically, listening. Steve has dealt with a number of difficult issues here and
has chosen to take input from all members of this body. He has also demonstrated an
ability to understand a number of complex issues and the needs of people. He
understands rural and agricultural issues, urban and business and has worked very
hard to bring people together with balance and conformity to develop a vision not only
for those issues but for the broader issues that bring all of us here. A vision for our
schools - that they produce educated young people; for our farmers - that they have
markets for their products; for employers - that they may compete not only in Iowa but
in the world. And as I said earlier, that our state's needy receive the helping hand that
they desire. Finally, it's key that we have an individual to complement our Speaker in
developing and implementing a plan of action to get that done. Past performance in
business and in this body I think demonstrates clearly that Representative Steve
Sukup of Franklin deserves our vote, and I would ask you to concur with me in that
matter.
Metcalf of Polk seconded the nomination of Representative Sukup

as Speaker pro tempore of the House of Representatives, preceding
her nomination with the following remarks:
Mr. Speaker, I wish to second the nomination of Steven E. Sukup of Franklin
County for the office of Speaker pro tempore.
I am pleased to second this nomination. Steve brings an engineer's sense of orderly
procedure to his legislative work. The process of doing the people's work here is one of
his strengths. When I first came to the legislature John Connors was Speaker pro
tempore, and I think he set a standard of dignity and fairness as Steve Sukup will
continue to do. The Speaker pro tempore must not only command respect but also be
respectful of this great institution. Steve Sukup has proven in his actions and
demeanor as a state representative that this institution will be well served with him as
Speaker pro tempore. Thank you.
Kreiman of Davis seconded the nomination of Representative
Sukup, preceding his nomination with the following remarks:
Mr. Speaker, I wish to second the nomination of Steven E. Sukup of Franklin
County for the office of Speaker pro tempore. It is indeed an honor to nominate my
friend, Steve Sukup, for this position. As most of you know, Representative Sukup is in
his fifth year in the House. During that time Steve has shown his leadership skills. He
has shown skill in his professional life in legislative committees while floor managing
and in floor managing controversial bills. Although I have not always agreed with
Steve on the merits of various bills I have always respected his knowledge and his
commitment to the people of this state. Steve will undertake the position of Speaker
pro tempore with passion and commitment. He will work with members of both parties,
House and Senate, and with our governor for the better good of Iowa. My parents who
are dedicated Republicans live in Representative Sukup's district. They tell me that
Steve represents his district well, and they appreciate his efforts. I agree with them.
Mr. Speaker, I move that that the Chief Clerk be directed to cast the votes of all the
members of the House of Representatives for the Honorable Steven E. Sukup of
Franklin County for Speaker pro tempore.
In accordance with the foregoing motion, the Chief Clerk cast the
votes of all the members of the House of Representatives for the
Honorable Steven E. Sukup as Speaker pro tempore of the House of
Representatives of the Seventy-eighth General Assembly. The
Honorable Steven E. Sukup of Franklin County, having received all of
the votes cast for the office of Speaker pro tempore of the House of
Representatives of the Seventy-eighth General Assembly was
declared duly elected to that office.
Larson of Linn moved that a committee of two be appointed to
escort the Speaker pro tempore to the chair.
The motion prevailed and the following committee was appointed:

Larson of Linn and Bukta of Clinton.
Representative Sukup was escorted to the Speaker's station and,
being duly sworn, offered the following remarks:
Thank you, Mr. Speaker Siegrist, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House.
I appreciate the opportunity to serve as your Speaker pro tempore. We all know the
last few days of a session can be wild, hectic and unpredictable. Especially if you're on
a conference committee on gambling with Representative Chiodo. I wasn't going to take
anything for granted today.
We in the legislature do have a unique timing, this Seventy-eighth General
Assembly - to close out the 20th century and set the course for the 21st, apparently
without Y2K liability protection, but I think we will survive just fine. The Iowa House
has the chance to seize the opportunity to develop the framework for Iowa to move into
the next century.
Iowa has great resources - agriculture; we can be the bread basket of the world.
Education excellence - our constituents demand it. My wife, Vicki, teaches in our local
high school. We want our three children - one in middle school, two in high school, to
be prepared just as all parents and grandparents want their children prepared to
proceed on to college or on to their careers they choose in life. The children and my
wife, Vicki, were unable to come down. We strengthened those truancy laws so I was a
little concerned about that. But my parents, Eugene and Mary Sukup, were able to join
us today. I appreciate them because as we know education starts at home with the
parents.
The other great resources that we have across the state are that we must have a
competitive business climate - that we maintain and attract the good jobs and keep
them here in Iowa. And at the same time allow those workers to be able to keep more
in their pocketbooks. And the greatest that we do have is Iowa's workforce. We have
that hard work ethic, and that's the resource that we have to keep developing in this
state. That's what makes Iowa above all others across the country. I believe the
legislature does exemplify that hard work ethic, also. Maybe not in the last two days of
the session but during the rest of it. I believe the institution of the Iowa House has its
proudest moments when we can challenge each other, question, debate and then pass
effective legislation to enhance all Iowans' lives. This can be done in a decorum where
we give a firm handshake or a pat on the back. Maybe not as firm as the Senate's but a
good firm pat on the back after a healthy, long debate.
With Speaker Siegrist's leadership, the work of Majority Leader Rants, Minority
Leader Schrader, and all House members, I look forward in completing a successful
Seventy-eighth General Assembly where good policy will benefit all Iowans. Thank you
Mr. Speaker and Colleagues.
