The bait will be speaker Mike Huckabee. At the event (catered by the Machine Shed!), a new umbrella organization is to be introduced, to be headed by Bob Vander Plaats: The Family Leader, which will incorporate the IFPC, its PAC and Marriage Matters, a program which used to be federally funded.
The Iowa Independent website notes that, despite sharing a name, numerous connections and an anti-gay marriage agenda, Iowa Family Policy Center President Chuck Hurley says the new incarnation of his organization — The Family Leader — has no affiliation whatsoever to a national group with the same name and apparent ties to the Mormon church.
You can believe Hurley's Mormon connection denial if you like.
