In other words Shannon wants to make it easier for any fornicating idiot to get professional licenses

Filling McKean’s old State Government spot is Iowa Rep. Shannon Lundgren, R-Peosta. She said she is particularly interested in addressing professional licensing on her new beat.

“We’re really over-regulated when it comes to licenses in this state,” Lundgren said. “We’re going to take a look at lessening people’s burden, to get people back to work.”

Sigh. Licensing exists namely to protect the public.
