The Honorable Terry E. Branstad
Governor of the State of Iowa
The State Capitol
Des Moines, Iowa 50319

Dear Governor Branstad:

In accordance with the Code of Iowa, I hereby transmit to you and the General Assembly, the Annual Report of the Iowa Civil Rights Commission for Fiscal Year 1986.

During Fiscal Year 1986, the Iowa Civil Rights Commission sought to eliminate discrimination and to promote equal opportunity in the state by processing civil rights cases, providing outreach and educational programs, and becoming an advocate for complainants following a determination that there was probable cause that a discriminatory act occurred. The Iowa Civil Rights Commission is fortunate to have the dedication of both the staff and Commissioners in working together to eliminate discrimination.

Your continued support of the Commission in its ongoing efforts to carry out the mandates of the Legislature and the Act are earnestly solicited and appreciated.

Respectfully submitted,

Inga Bumbary-Langston
Executive Director
