Heartfelt thanks to @RepMMM and her team for sharing news of Iowa PBS's national awards with the U.S. House of Representatives yesterday, and then with her X followers as well! We're blushing just a little. 😊
Congratulations Iowa PBS for receiving two prestigious Public Media Awards presented by the National Educational Telecommunications Association (NETA). Congratulations to your team and thank you for sharing our state's story.
