State Senator Bousselot Ends Re-Election Campaign

Sen. Bousselot held leadership positions on two powerful committees - Commerce (Chair) and Infrastructure Budget (Vice Chair).  Bousselot previously served as Chief of Staff to Governor Terry Branstad and was appointed by Governor Kim Reynolds as the Director of the Iowa Department of Management.
