When I was an 11 year old boy living in Council Bluffs, Iowa, our very own Senator Tom Harkin changed my life and gave me, and so many other disabled Americans, an on-ramp to society.
Throughout our campaign, I’ve said it will be beautifully poetic when the man who takes back Senator Harkin’s seat is only here because of his work. Iowa, together, we made history, and we wrote beautiful poetry.
Thank you, Iowa!
Thank you, Linn County, for placing your trust in me to serve you for the next four years!!
It is an honor to represent the community that shaped me into the man that I am today 🙏🏻

We have 1 day left to make it happen, Iowa. Let’s do this!

Ashley Hinson has made a rhetorical shift in calling for an end to the Iran war, but told me last night in Northern Iowa that she opposes resolution to limit Trump’s war powers.
Two endangered Rs from Iowa — Zach Nunn and Marianette Miller-Meeks — voted ‘yes’ for the first time this fall to limit Trump’s war powers.
Hinson: “We don't need another resolution. We need our US military and the president to end the war, and that's what I feel.”

Defense of 24 absentee ballot being mailed to Kansas is my favorite part:
“All my official mail has gone to my assistant for years,” he explained.
So his assistant is in… Kansas? #IAGov
Zach Lahn never beating the Kansas carpetbagger allegations:
“Mr. Lahn cast an Iowa ballot in the 2024 general election. But voting records that have not previously been reported show he requested that his ballot be mailed to him — in Kansas.”

NEW: Zach Lahn launched his campaign for IA gov surrounded by 7 kids from his "blended" family.
The event came as a surprise to the father of three of the featured children.

A new contract has been ratified and the strike is over for the UAW workers at Novolex in Cedar Rapids.
I’m proud that Linn County stood with these workers and our community throughout the strike 💪🏻

The Republican National Committee taking unprecedented action to try to save Ashley Hinson's flailing Senate campaign. From @PunchbowlNews:

You can’t make this shit up. This is why @turek4iowa is controlling this race.

BREAKING: Leaked texts show that Zach Lahn was so concerned about his LG pick Derek Wulf's legal problems that his campaign was apparently considering replacing him on the ticket with Bobby Kaufmann 3 days after the pick
ON THE SAME DAY, Lahn's campaign downplayed it publicly as "Derek is in the middle of a routine re-financing"

Crazy WSJ data. Between 2022 and 2025, wealth increased 37% for Americans 75 and older, while **decreased** 23% for people under 35.
