No more endless foreign wars. The constitution gives Congress the authority to declare war, I would vote YES on today's War Powers Resolution to end Trump's reckless war in Iran.

I’ll stand up to anyone, Donald Trump or Chuck Schumer, when they are hurting our state. It’s time to put Iowans over insiders.

Brand new polling shows us leading the Democratic primary. We’ve got the momentum because I’m the only candidate willing to challenge the corrupt D.C. establishment and fight for Iowa families. That’s how we’re going to defeat Ashley Hinson this November.

The Central Iowa Building and Construction Trades Council is made up of 16 local unions representing over 15,000 workers. I’m proud to stand with the tradesmen and women who are building Iowa with their hands every day, and I’m grateful for their support for our campaign for Senate.

The Trump-Hinson tariffs have hammered Iowa farmers and jacked up the cost of living, especially at the grocery store. The truth is simple: Trump & Hinson’s tariffs are an unconstitutional tax on Iowa families. In the Senate, I will fight to prevent any attempts to continue this disastrous agenda.

I'm the only candidate in this race - Democrat or Republican - not backed by the D.C. establishment.

I work for Iowans not insiders.

Whirlpool’s laying off nearly 400 union workers in Amana β€” after cutting 250 last year β€” while expanding production in Mexico. That’s not β€œrestructuring.” It’s corporate greed, and Iowa families are paying the price. Whirlpool should stop these layoffs and keep these jobs in Iowa.

I am endorsing Zach Wahls for US Senate. I served with Zach in the Iowa Senate and I know Iowans can trust him to work for our best interests.

Zach is a champion for the poor and working families. He supports our health and economic well-being. He embraces safe, clean, affordable renewable energy.

Pete’s been in the trenches of tough fights and I’m proud to have his support. I’m running to take on the monopolies, break the grip of special-interest money, and put power back where it belongs: with hardworking Iowa families.

Operating Engineers are the people who literally build this country β€” running the heavy equipment, maintaining the machinery, and getting the job done safely and professionally. This campaign is about standing up for working-class families, and I’m proud to have the support of Local 150 & Local 234.

Instead of standing up for Iowa, Ashley Hinson keeps voting for higher costs and more uncertainty for our state. I’ll always fight for policies that open markets for Iowa agriculture, lower costs for families, and put Iowa workers first, not reckless tariffs that hurt our own people.

Ashley Hinson has now voted multiple times to keep Donald Trump’s reckless tariffs in place β€” tariffs that have slammed Iowa farmers, squeezed our ag economy, and raised prices on hardworking families and retirees.

It shouldn’t be hard for Ashley Hinson to condemn Donald Trump’s post depicting the Obama’s as apes. But that would require her to have an ounce of political courage.

On Feb 5th, State Senators Zach Wahls &Tom Townsend filed a bill to protect manufactured home communities in Iowa. In 2018, Zach filed a similar bill, which received unanimous support passing the Iowa Senate. Thanks to Ashley Hinson the bill never made it to the house. #ZachWahls #HarmfulHinson

During my first year in office, out-of-state private equity companies started buying up mobile home communities across Iowa. Rents skyrocketed, and I rallied the Senate to pass a bipartisan bill to protect residents' rights. But then-State Rep. Ashley Hinson killed that bill.

I'm proud to have the backing of over 100 elected officials and community leaders from all backgrounds across Iowa. Our team is growing and we're focused on what matters: lowering costs for families, fighting corruption, and making sure working people can get ahead again.

The videos out of Minneapolis today are horrific. ICE is deliberately causing chaos, endangering lives and making our communities less safe.

We need law and order. ICE needs to leave Minnesota. Congress needs to do its job and end this chaos.

Senators introduce state constitutional amendment overturning Citizens United β€’ Iowa Capital Dispatch The bipartisan proposed constitutional amendment is a "state-based response" to the 2010 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Citizens United.

Iowa Sens. Zach Wahls, D-Coralville and David Sires, R-Cedar Falls, told reporters Wednesday there is bipartisan interest in taking action to stop anonymous, corporate influence in Iowa elections, Robin Opsahl reports.

It’s time to ban corporations from influencing our elections, and I’m proud to co-sponsor this constitutional amendment with Republican State Senator Dave Sires. Sixteen years ago, the Supreme Court passed the Citizens United decision, which has corrupted our politics. It’s time to fight back.
