Bill Maske Formally Announces Candidacy for Iowa’s 4th Congressional District

Truro, Iowa, December 10, 2009 — Beginning Wednesday, December 16, Bill Maske, Democratic Candidate for Iowa’s 4th District Congressional seat will tour the district to make a formal announcement of candidacy. This announcement tour involves thirteen stops throughout the 4th District in a span of three days.

Maske, currently the Superintendent of Schools for the Interstate 35 Community School District in Truro, will step down from his duties as superintendent beginning January 25, 2010, to devote his attention and time to the 4th district congressional race.

Maske enters the congressional race with a devotion to service, saying, “As a professional educator and public servant, I have seen what social injustice can do to families and children. We have drifted far from the vision of a government of, for, and by the people.
