Official Account of the Adams County Iowa Democrats. Rural strong. Working to elect Democrats, recruit candidates, register voters, educate our neighbors
Every single vote does matter. There’s no staying home this election. Plan how you’ll vote and ask your friends and family what their plan is. Let us know if we can help.
An election that’s within the margin of error is also within the margin of effort. The doors we knock, the conversations we have, and the voters we contact are what will decide which future we wake up to on November 6.
Iowans shouldn’t have to struggle to make ends meet. But, many will due to @IAGovernor’s lawsuit against student loan forgiveness. We deserve leaders who will put people before politics. Period. #SCOTUS#CorporateKim

Shoutout to every Iowan out here today standing up for LGBTQ rights! We believe students deserve to be themselves & that we all should #SayGayIA! #Iowa
"My heart breaks," Reynolds said. "I’ve sat down and met with them. It’s not easy. It’s not easy for me either. It’s not easy for our elected officials to make these decisions. So I just, I hope they know that."
My take on the legal issues surrounding Iowa's "bathroom bill," which applies to all schools (public and private) but not to private businesses: https://t.co/T9AA79g7q7

Iowans deserve access to abortion pills, no matter where they live. However, @IAGovernor & @AGIowa disagree.
Their action to ban abortion pills at Walgreens will disproportionately impact vulnerable Iowans, especially in rural areas. #Iowa https://t.co/708bdT85R9
It’s time our politicians leave students alone & let kids be themselves! That's why we'll be at the Capitol this tomorrow. Info on the rally below. #SayGayIA https://t.co/xer9LVFCGK
