As the LPIA transfers to full political party status, interest in and participation with the Libertarian Party of Iowa is increasing. The party’s chair reports the number of registered Libertarians in Iowa is only a few hundred voters short of 10,000. We have heard from several people inspired to run for office in 2018 by the showing of the Libertarians in the 2016 election. We continue to focus on growing the grassroots of the party.
We need your financial support to help with operational expenses, party building expenses, and campaign outreach expenses. In past years, the LPIA had a dues-based structure. On November 30, 2016, the LPIA Executive Committee voted to set dues at $0.00 for 2017.
In those years as a non-party political organization, the money from dues would be coming in during these next few months leading up to the party’s convention. As the 2017 budget is being developed, including adding in expenses necessary to help us maintain our newly-reached status as a full political party in Iowa, we need your donations now to help provide the funding needed to meet these goals.
Those past dues have been $20 in recent years. We ask that you make a donation at what you can afford as the end of the year nears, whether that is $20, $100, $500, or even only $5 or $10. With your help, we will continue to be here to make Iowa better.
Thank you. Click here to make a donation using PayPal or with a check.
