“Getting to serve District 51 has been an honor,” Deyoe said. “I am grateful for the continued support my constituents gave me. I have enjoyed the opportunity to serve not only the good people of House District 51 but the people of Iowa. I am pleased with the work we accomplished during my time in the Statehouse.”
