The Iowa House and our state lost a wonderful man today. In my campaign I asked Rep. John Landon and his wife Marvis lots of questions. With cancer John would still come in & vote from an isolated area & received a huge ovation when he presented one of his bills. Love you sir!🙏🏽

For many of the freedoms we enjoy, we’re in debt to a soldier. Soldiers, including Iowans signed up to end slavery. Forced into WW2, soldiers ended fascism, Nazi socialists, and the spread of communism. Today we honor all veterans, especially those who gave their lives. Thank you

Happy Martin Luther King, Jr Day!
I launched my campaign exactly one year ago - on Martin Luther King, Jr Day. Why this day? I couldn't think of a better day to launch.
I am forever in debt to the hearts he changed and the path he and many others paved.
