The Michael J. Manatt Memorial AGC of Iowa PAC Auction was a highlight of convention. The PAC Auction theme this year was “Show Me the Money”, which was an appropriate theme for meeting the challenges members face as a group and in individual businesses. The AGC of Iowa's success at the statehouse starts with the PAC Auction, and the event raised money to benefit the industry.
