A Pella native has decided to throw his hat into the ring for the Republican nomination for President. Jerry Lanser, who’s an alumnus of Pella Christian High School, will be back in Iowa this weekend to spread his message of fiscal responsibility. Lanser, who currently resides in Longmont, Colorado, tells KNIAKRLS News he feels obligated to make a run and share his message for the sake of his five grandchildren, whom he says are already saddled with federal debt. His platform includes replacing the federal income tax with a national sales tax and passing a balanced budget amendment. He’ll be speaking tonight at Pella Christian High School at 7 pm.
