Privatized Medicaid has been a disaster for Iowans with disabilities and their families, and the steep Medicaid cuts coming from the One Big Beautiful Bill will only make the problems worse. Read more here: https://t.co/hE5vDpeeGE

Solving Iowa's budget mess won't happen overnight, but putting an end to the policies that drive away workers and repel outside investment is a good place to start.

We believe Iowans deserve access to affordable, reliable, local childcare. That's why we've made it a cornerstone of our policy agenda. You can read more here: https://t.co/WdtAuZt8oK

These required courses would increase the cost of college education for students and their families by thousands of dollars in order to satisfy an ideological goal, not an educational one.

What's "beautiful" about a bill that makes healthcare harder to access?

Sen. Weiner joined Iowa Press to talk about the 2026 legislative session. Tune in to PBS tonight at 7:30 to watch!

When we talk about a more affordable Iowa, we're talking about bringing down the cost of the real-life, everyday essentials Iowans need. We're talking about housing and healthcare and childcare. We're talking about our kids' lunches and our grandparents' nursing facilities.

[Iowa Senate Democrats @IowaSenate]

Thanks to a new bill passed this year, insurance companies will not be able to use A.I. to deny Iowans' medical claims.

[Iowa Senate Democrats @IowaSenate]

When clinics close entire communities are impacted. The combination of sweeping Medicaid cuts at the federal level and a disatrous privatized system in Iowa has made accessing healthare in rural Iowa more complicated than ever.

Every step forward is important in the fight against Iowa's cancer crisis.

[Iowa Senate Democrats @IowaSenate]

We're fighting for an affordable Iowa where childcare is locally accessible and doesn't break the bank; where healthcare costs less and is found closer to home; and where Iowans aren’t forced to pay more to cover for the Republican legislature’s bad budgeting.

[Iowa Senate Democrats @IowaSenate]

Iowans have always answered the call of duty. Today we honor the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service of their country.
