Plans to end programs like statewide preschool while pushing tax breaks for corporations got several hundred people to protest outside Gov. Branstad's office this morning. Mike McCarthy of Des Moines one of them. He's also part of Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement, and tells the Des Moines Register “Governor Branstad calls for shared sacrifice to balance the budget but he balances his budget on the backs of everyday, hardworking Iowans while at the same time cutting corporate taxes and privatizing economic development, and that ain't right.”
