Hello! My name is Sondra Wilson, founder of Wild Willpower PAC, and I am running to be the next Governor for the State of Iowa.

You can read some of my credentials and endorsements here, and the comprehensive platform I have spent years researching and developing is written below. I strongly urge every Iowan to read it, because it presents various opportunities for all sectors of Iowa’s economic growth, while at the same time responding to increasing demands for more humanitarian-based social services sector. 

To be considered as Governor for the State of Iowa, one must use more than  rhetoric, platitudes, and propaganda: it takes hard work, compassion and wisdom for toward all people, and the ability to either problem solve or know how to find the person who can solve the problem. In times of trouble, hope is not a plan.

That is why I have been working diligently for many years to develop the unique, comprehensive platform below. It dips into America’s past and grabs onto the best of it, while casts aside that which no longer serves us or our descendants. I do not have children, so when I say “our descendants”, please think of me as an Auntie who doesn’t know any parent on this planet who has time to sit down and “dig in” to come up with in-depth political solutions that. If accepted, my plan will benefit the wealthy and the poor alike, and will serve create a better future for all.

Several New Inventions require Patents and Commissioning  

As you have noticed, I have been blessed to have conceived in some inventions that will greatly aid and benefit humanity. Although you may not understand their value yet, in time I will have them more accurately described. As Governor, I plan to create several commissions to oversee to ensure the proper development of each of these in a manner that will be lucrative for Iowans, and will have lasting impacts on solving a myriad of problems that have ailed humanity since time immemorial. These Commissions are hereby patent pending, and I assure you that the proceeds wrought once the industries are intact will greatly benefit Iowans and put us on the map globally for reasons of humanitarianism, ingenuity, and strong respecters of human rights. For anyone shaking in their boots about the prospects of me becoming Governor, I assure you that you have nothing to fear but fear itself, for the plan below lays out my intent, and the outcome of this plan will benefit you much more than whatever your previous plans may have been. Remember the words of great inventor Buckminster Fuller:

Hark! The above image from GoodReads used in accordance with the Fair Use Doctrine, as I am conveying a political plan which requires context. This is a plan to help the people and planet, and it must be conveyed.

“Proceeds shall be returned to the State of Iowa for the sole purpose of helping Iowans who align themselves with Wild Willpower by promising to uphold the rights, dignity, and respect toward all Iowans, with good will toward all in all of our endeavors. This is an opportunity to rise above divisive politics, turn away from a wrong direction and try again, and to firmly invest in yourself, your family, and in future generations.”

Sondra Wilson

Author’s note: As of the date of this writing, June 11, 2025, I am currently transcribing the plan onto the website. You will come across some severely unfinished links that will soon be transcribed and revised.

Civilian Restoration Corps

Modeled after Civilian Conservation Corps, then made up-to-date for today’s world, this new, replicable government program will be modeled and improved upon here in Iowa, then eventually leased to other states to help them. The fact that we get to be the first state to model Civilian Restoration Corps should come as a point of pride and a fun talking point that will put us on the map as problem solvers, humanitarians, and people who know and value our history. “Heal the Heartland; heal the nation; heal the world.” It all starts with the heart.

The CRC Program will create thousands of new jobs across the state, while drawing upon and bringing money to the hands of inventers, entrepreneurs, engineers, horticulturalists, Master Gardens, and partners across the business world in order to make this plan better and more feasible. We live in the “If you build it, they will come” state: if you elect Sondra Wilson as Iowa Governor, this is Iowa’s just reward.

  Iowa Citizens may sign up to join a CRC team through their local County office or CRC’s online portal. Here are the six different teams people can sign up for, depending upon their preferences and interests:

Team #1: “Gardens Across Iowa!” —Teams will install highly-efficient food and herbal gardens throughout every town and city across Iowa using the most efficient, creative techniques Gardens Across Iowa! can find. The best techniques are added into the Gardens Across Iowa! App™, which helps Master Gardeners, Plot Owners (members of the public), and In-School Program Directors manage the gardens after they’ve been installed. The Gardens Across Iowa! program will enable the State of Iowa to expand Iowa’s Right to Garden ActREAD MORE.

Team #2: “FarmHire” – Allows rural Iowans to apply through a portal to hire well-paid entry level farmhands and experienced renovators to help spruce up the farm and fix up barns and outbuildings. READ MORE.

Team #3: “Solar Installers” – Teams will install solar power, cool roofs, thermal curtains, and other low-cost, energy saving measures to homes and rental properties in order to reduce energy bills for homeowners and renters. C.R.C. will prioritize installing solar on apartment complexes to reduce energy bills for all Iowans. The Solar Installers leg of the CRC program goes hand-in-hand with the Crop Diversity and Enrichment Act, which will greatly benefit Iowa’s farmers.. READ MORE.

Team #4: “Road Repairers” – Fixing crumbling roads and bridges – Construction crews will be able to expand operations through hiring C.R.C. employees who are interested in construction work.

Justice Reforms

I suspect my story will evoke feelings of anger or judgment at first because I am a transgender woman living in this political climate. However, as Iowans look into our past and remember our forgotten role as a leader upholding in civil rights, I suspect that we will want to pick up that flag and hold it high, because that is a legacy we have the opportunity to restore and cocreate right now. My platform contains numerous ways we will make Iowa a more just state in order fulfill the promise “Liberty and justice for all.”

Justice Accessibility Act — Simplifies Iowa’s overly-complex rules of courtroom procedure into a simple “step-by-step instructions with forms”. Institutes a basic law class into public schools so that every high schooler who graduates knows the difference between civil and criminal law, and what to do if their rights are violated or if they are harmed. Institutes several other measures to improve Iowa’s justice system… READ MORE.

Simplify the Iowa Rules of Courtroom Procedure — We will transform the obscenely-complex 309 Iowa Rules of Civil Procedure63 Rules of Evidence, and 89 Rules of Criminal Procedure into step-by-step instructions that makes navigating the courts much simpler for everyday Iowans. This work has already begun. READ MORE.

Organize Iowa Supreme Court opinions into a user-friendly database — … READ MORE.

Teach jurisprudence in High Schools — Students will graduate knowing the difference between criminal and civil law. and basic step-by-step what to do if your rights are violated – including by an officer or government official (e.gcolor of law crimes). Students should know how to create an effective contract,  READ MORE.

Reshape Iowa as a Leader in Civil Rights — Implements a series of common sense measures to strengthen the Iowa Civil Rights Act, Iowa Civil Rights Commission, and to protect women and transgender Iowans… READ MORE.

Codify the “Right to First Trimester Abortions”; with expedient care”, with medical exceptions for severe complications in the second and third trimesters. See next subsection:

      • Counterbalanced with “Safe Sex, Safe Hearts” Education Campaign —Focusing on unintentional pregnancy prevention and the importance of practicing responsible and safe sex. The reason it is called “Safe Sex, Safe Hearts” is to encourage healthy communication, including communicating boundaries and being respectful of boundaries. Perhaps one cause for sexual violence is that we do not spend enough time teaching the importance of respectful and appropriate communication. READ MORE.

Responsible Gun Ownership Act aka “G.I. Joe Act”— institutes a statewide in-school education program where Peace Officers and Veterans educate fifth graders about the importance of only using guns to protect themselves or others. Statements such as, “Veterans fought and died to protect the 2nd Amendment, and it is important to remember that sacrifice and remember that honor every time you even think about holding a gun.” It is important that we catch students at a young age before they learn about guns from video games and movies, and while still at an age where they look up to police officers as positive role models. Also requires prospective gun owners to pass a written test — much like a driver’s test — to ensure they know the law, how to properly store a gun so that kids don’t get ahold of it, and so on… READ MORE

Watchdog Act — Repeals what Rob Sand called “the most pro-corruption bill in Iowa history”, SF-478. The bill effectively hamstrings the role of State Auditor and prevents them from being able to do their job. The Watchdog Act also mandates and amendment to the Iowa Constitution to prevent this type of pro-corruption bill from being passed in the future. Notice: Sondra Wilson firmly objects to Rob Sand’s bid for Iowa Governor READ MORE.

Scammers Beware! Act — Makes it illegal for out-of-state callers to mask their phone number in order to attempt to spam, scam, and/or make unsolicited calls to Iowans. Institutes a number of provisions that will make phony businesses terrified at the thought of trying to scam an Iowan because the state will go after them!  READ MORE.

Offshore Accountability Act — Classifies stashing money in offshore accounts, or by other unscrupulous means (to avoid taxes), as theft.

 

Helping Farmers

Crop Diversity and Enrichment Act — Gets Iowa farmers in on growing solar panels from pokeweed berries, as discovered at Wake Forest University. Additionally, the State of Iowa will look to partner Wisconsin Battery Company to assist in research improving upon hemp batteries, which have been found to be more efficient than lithium. Through subsidies, education programs, and other practical measures, the State of Iowa will assist farmers in getting in on early crop booms. Pokeweed berry solar panels and hemp batteries will eventually be used and installed by Civilian Restoration Corps’ Solar Installers team asap… READ MORE

Rural Iowa Revitalization Act —Allocates funding for to hire Civilian Restorations Corps’ FarmHire to help clean up and rebuild old farm buildings throughout rural Iowa. Solar Installers and FarmHire will rebuild old barns and outbuildings, install solar-powered energy, and provide help around the farm for rural Iowans… READ MORE.

Guarantee the Right to Repairguaranteeing farmers the “right to repair” their equipment. In other words, manufacturers won’t be allowed to lock farmers out from fixing their own equipment… READ MORE.

 

Sensible Housing Act

Eminent Domain Rental Properties Owned by Out-of-State Landlords You know how eminent domain is always used in the worst ways — like taking land from farmers to put in pipelines? What if we flipped the script and used it in a way that actually benefits the public? Out-of-state landlords own rental properties all over Iowa, vacuuming up millions of dollars as Iowans go broke. With rents rising and Iowa’s homelessness problem is at a record high, Iowa’s renters need big relief now. Taking rental properties from out-of-state landlords will keep millions of dollars in Iowa, which will help businesses profit in a manner that provides Iowa’s tenant class with desperately-needed relief. Apartment units and buildings will be fixed up and brought up to code by CRC’s Apartment Improvers, outfitted with solar power to reduce energy bills via Solar Installers, and food and herbal medicine gardens will be planted nearby thanks to Gardens Across Iowa! READ MORE.

Rural Iowa Revitalization Act —Allocates funding for to hire Civilian Restorations Corps’ FarmHire teams to help clean up and rebuild old farm buildings throughout rural Iowa. Solar Installers and FarmHire teams will bring solar-powered energy and provide help around the farm to rural Iowans. A

Sustainable Villages to Help the Homeless – At some point, as a society, we need to face it: not everyone fits perfectly into the business community. Many simply don’t have the wherewithal to hold a steady job and make ends meet. It becomes exhausting for Iowa’s homeless population and nonprofits trying to keep up with Iowa’s growing homeless population. Modeled in part after Joppa’s proposed village, sustainable village will use cob housing, papercrete using recycled paper, and be outfitted by Solar Installers, with Master Gardeners helping to tend food and herbal medicine gardens… READ MORE.

Optimize Iowa’s Healthcare System

Streamline Medicaid via a “Spoke” System — Instead of Iowans annually choosing one of Iowa’s three Managed Care Organizations (MCOs), with that MCO then covering anything that could go wrong, each MCO will only cover 3 systems of the body. For example, Molina might cover muscular, skeletal, and reproductive; Iowa Total Care might cover endocrine, nervous, and cardiovascular, and so on. This allows each MCO to cover more from within their “spokes” of the wheel: saved costs allow us to expand coverage.READ MORE.

Premium Healthcare Packages for Small Businesses —Private insurance companies who are headquartered in Iowa will come together to create a premium business package that allows them to offer premium health insurance to their employees at a low package price they can afford.READ MORE.

Reduce Administrative Costs for Welfare ProgramsInstead of taxpayers paying the high administrative costs of constantly sending out renewal letters to Medicaid and SNAP recipients, the state will send out one renewal per year. Wasted tax dollars will instead go toward expanding coverage and reducing copays.

Increased Pay for CaregiversThrough the Iowa Commonwealth Act

 

Iowa Commonwealth Act (tax plan)

Places a tax on multi-millionaires and billionaires in order to subsidize and raise minimum wage, with larger subsidies going toward Iowa’s caregivers for the disabled and elderly. Also helps helps kickstart Civilian Restoration Corps. When CEOs earn $20 M+ per year, it is okay to talk about taxing them at a higher rate. This will raise the quality of life for all Iowans – the wealthy and the poor – because “a rising tide lifts all ships”. John Locke, the most quoted political author by the Founding Fathers, described the ideal government as a “commonwealth”, for which The Commonwealth Act is named. It’s not socialist — it’s egalitarian and it’s agape.

Read the full plan: Iowa Commonwealth Act

 

Helping Small Businesses

Subsidize and raise minimum wage – Increased subsidies for caregivers for the disabled and elderly. Economists agree that subsidizing the minimum wage is smarter than raising the minimum wage, as raising it causes prices to rise and lowers the purchasing power of the disabled and the elderly who depend on social security. Also, raising the wage without subsidizing hurts small businesses more than large corporations, who can more easily absorb the costs. Paid for through the Iowa Commonwealth Act.
