Iowa’s Vision of a More Beautiful World, 10 Years After Passing a Green New Deal

What would America's heartland be like, 10 years after we pass a Green New Deal?

This is the future that farmers, indigenous leaders, students and union leaders in Iowa imagined, and it's the future we could have, if we're willing to fight for it.
