The inappropriate behavior of a state official was escalating and made women feel unsafe at work, according to an employee who wrote a letter outlining complaints about her boss.

Governor Kim Reynolds released the letter at the request of the woman, with some passages blocked out to try to preserve the identity of the Iowa Finance Authority employee who wrote it. Reynolds fired Iowa Finance Authority director Dave Jamison shortly after receiving the information. It alleges Jamison tried to pressure his employee to go to his hotel room and talked repeatedly in the office about sex.

Governor Reynolds has issued a statement, calling Jamison’s behavior “disgusting and abhorrent.” Reynolds added that information like this “should only be released on the victim’s terms and no one else’s” because it is their story to tell.
