IOWANS DESERVE BETTER

For the past 16 years, a lack of balance in politics has left Iowans behind and basic Constitutional rights under attack. Iowa has dropped to 50th in the U.S. for economic growth and is facing a $1.3 billion deficit in 2026. The agricultural industry is projecting Iowa's farm income will decline by 24 percent in 2026. Iowa has the second-highest and fastest-growing rate of new cancers in the nation, and U.S. Senator Joni Ernst's response, "we're all gonna die," sums up how out of touch Iowa's elected officials are with everyday Iowans. It's time for a reset. If pro-Democracy candidates take control of Congress next year, we will once again have some checks and balances in place.
