DES MOINES, IA (06/13/2017) (readMedia)-- State Treasurer Michael L. Fitzgerald was pleased to reunite John Potash of Sioux City with his lost safe deposit contents on Tuesday at the downtown Sioux City Library. "The box was turned over to the treasurer's office as unclaimed property almost 15 years ago," Fitzgerald said. "I'm very happy to return the contents as part of my ongoing commitment to reunite Iowans with their lost property through the Great Iowa Treasure Hunt."

Recently, I was back on the road, traveling around the state and meeting with folks to hear about what is going on in their area. While there are many issues that Congress should be working hard in Washington to address, like fixing healthcare, growing our economy and creating jobs, I am always glad to spend time back home, working in Iowa. I am proud to have held over 150 meetings, roundtables, tours and constituent coffees so far this year.
