U.S. Representative Ashley Hinson, a Republican from Marion, was in Marshalltown this past Friday to take part in a roundtable discussion event hosted by the Marshalltown Area Chamber of Commerce.

Several community leaders from the Marshalltown area were on hand at the Alliant Energy building to meet with Representative Hinson and discuss issues of importance during the special roundtable gathering.

During the event, Representative Hinson talked about the importance of workforce training as it relates to today’s ever-changing workforce environment.

Hinson says one workforce area that has been dramatically impacted by the current COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other notable economic factors is the nation’s healthcare industry.

Ashley Hinson represents Iowa’s 1st Congressional District, which includes the cities of Dubuque, Waterloo, and Cedar Rapids.
