(Des Moines, IA) — Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds says she has no plans to intervene in the strike by John Deere workers. That job action is entering its fourth week at plants in Iowa and two other states. Reynolds told reporters during a stop in Pella Tuesday that she is confident the sides will settle. She says her office is letting the process work out, and it is working out. A company spokesperson said that Deere wouldn’t resume negotiations with the U-A-W last week, and its second contract offer was its best and final bid.
