Itโ€™s officialโ€“ Iโ€™m running for US Congress in #IA-03!

This district is my home. Iโ€™m running for Congress because Iowans need a fighter for them in Washington and Zach Nunn isnโ€™t up to the job.

Join our campaign and help us win:

Itโ€™s the tool millions of people use to donate $5, $10, $20 or more to candidates they believe in.

Trump is painting it as some kind of threat to democracy. Why?

Itโ€™s about scaring you out of participating.

Itโ€™s about making you second-guess whether itโ€™s โ€œsafeโ€ to support candidates like me.

Donald Trump just issued a presidential directive calling for a federal investigation into ActBlueโ€”the platform that powers grassroots donations to campaigns like mine for Iowa Senate.

Letโ€™s talk about what this actually means.

ActBlue is a secure, widely used payment processor. Thatโ€™s it.

Immunity for pesticide companies is a bad idea. And it barely passed, which tells you even the Republicans know itโ€™s a bad idea. Vote 26-22

This letter appeared in the Bloomsburg PA Press Enterprise this morning. I am assured the writer is who he purports to be, an Air Force veteran.

According to Common Good Iowa, wage theft robs 250,000 Iowans of over $900,000,000 every year. SF 147 would strengthen Iowa's weak wage theft laws and better protect working Iowans and law-abiding businesses from bad actors.

Iowa Senate Democrats have always and will always support the brave men and women serving in Iowa's fire departments. While Senate Republicans have pulled SF 272, we eagerly await the opportunity to support HSB 266 when it makes its way to the Senate.

Thankfully, not all bad ideas advance in the Iowa Legislature. Here are a few bad GOP bills that didn't survive Funnel Week.

This session, Senate Democrats have been able to help advance good, bipartisan legislation that can help Iowans. Here are just a handful of those bills.

Senate Democrats rolled out legislative proposals to expand access to childcare, provide paid family leave, protect Iowa's workers, and expand affordable housing options. None of the proposals received a subcommittee hearing.

Vouchers have always been a giveaway to private schools. Raising tuition rates just further enriches the schools and keeps enrollment inaccessible to the same kids and families as before.

Anyone interested in a blue dot yard sign Campaign? Iโ€™d be willing to organize an order in Linn county โ€”they are anywhere from $7 to $10 apiece depending on how many people order.
