Iowans for Christian Leaders in Government is a conservative, religious political attack front group described only as "anonymous," "shadowy" and "previously unknown" in various news reports. [1][2][3] The group spent much of its time attacking Newt Gingrich in the 2012 Iowa Republican caucuses, then switched to attacking Rick Santorum after he became a front-runner.[4]
