One of the benefits INA brings to its newspaper members is the power of being able to affect positive outcomes for newspapers by having a voice in the Iowa legislature. The 313 newspapers of Iowa have a much bigger voice in Iowa’s government than any newspaper, whatever its size, has on its own. INA relies on its member newspapers to keep in touch with their local senators and representatives, and to be ready and willing to contact them in the event a need arises. With all newspapers working together, INA helps ensure its members’ interests are protected.
