Driving after a #DUI conviction can be a dicey experience. Many states require drivers, if they want to keep using their cars, to install ignition interlock devices that measure #alcohol levels before allowing the vehicle to start.

After hackers hit an Iowa company, cars around the country failed to start
If you don't calibrate your interlock in time, your vehicle is dead.

Border to border: help us activate the #NoKingsHighway on March 26!
On Thursday, March 26, we’re activating the full length of Interstate 35 — from northern Minnesota to south Texas — in a coordinated rush-hour visibility action. Our goal is to build momentum for No Kings events being held nationwide on the following Saturday.
Democracy Bridge (Minneapolis) is inviting Indivisible, 50501, Visibility Brigade, and other allies to stand in highly visible areas along I-35 on Thursday, March 26 with one shared message: YES DEMOCRACY - NO KINGS! 3/28.
Des Moines Visibility Brigade is joining this effort! You only need to bring yourself and be ready to wave at passing cars but please feel free to bring a flag, sign, inflatable costume, pom poms, water.
*A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.*

#Iowa legislature for
#SunshineWeek.
The House has much better access for the media.
But the Senate's subcommittee and committee meetings are more accessible to the public & media.
