COMMUNICATIONS RECEIVED
The following communications were received and filed in the office
of the Chief Clerk:
January 14, 2003
The Honorable Christopher Rants
Speaker of the Iowa House
Iowa House of Representatives
State Capitol
Des Moines, Iowa 50319
Dear Speaker Rants:
It is with both pleasure and regret that I am today submitting my resignation as a
member of the Iowa House of Representatives effective at the end of the day, today. It
has been my honor for the past six years to serve the people of Des Moines. But that
service has come as a great sacrifice to my family.
I have been offered the opportunity to work with Mike Blouin in the Iowa
Department of Economic Development. I believe that this department will spearhead
many exciting new initiatives to make Iowa grow. I welcome the opportunity to be a
part of that process.
In addition, my family looks forward to my now having just one job rather than the
three or four I was juggling in the past. I look forward to spending more time with my
wife and my two little children.
Mr. Speaker, I am sorry that I will no longer be able to work alongside of you and
the other members of the Iowa House. But I look forward to working with you in my
new role in the executive branch.
Sincerely,
Representative Frank Chiodo
