Gov. Kim Reynolds

43rd governor of Iowa. 5th generation Iowan. Former county treasurer, state senator & lt. governor. Unleashing opportunities!

[Gov. Kim Reynolds @IAGovernor]

It’s no surprise Iowa is one of the three states that has fully recovered in both reading and math since the pandemic.

We prioritized students by reopening schools for in-person learning in August 2020 and passing laws to ensure evidence-based instruction in reading and math.

Iowa is proof that when you focus on students, results follow.

[John Bailey @John_Bailey]

Education stagnation: Only 3 states have fully bounced back in both math and reading since the pandemic: Iowa, Mississippi, and Tennessee.

Just 6 of 23 states beat 2019 math levels, and only 4 of 20 exceeded 2019 ELA levels.

The recovery gap remains wide.
Grateful for this @ProfEmilyOster work and analysis over at State Test Score Results.

Disaster recovery continues in Adams County.

Today, a fleet of orange Iowa DOT trucks rolled into Corning and cleared roughly 50 loads of debris.

Thank you to all the local crews, volunteers and state partners working side-by-side to help the community recover.

[Gov. Kim Reynolds @IAGovernor]

Happy birthday to President Donald Trump!

So grateful to have a leader who believes in American greatness as we prepare to celebrate another important birthday – the 250th anniversary of our Founding!

Happy 251st birthday to the @USArmy!

And THANK YOU to all our heroes in uniform for standing in the breach in defense of our nation.

You remind us that #freedomisnotfree.

[Gov. Kim Reynolds @IAGovernor]

After nearly two-and-a-half centuries as the official U.S. flag, the Stars and Stripes is still the greatest symbol of freedom in the world.

Happy Flag Day, everyone!

[Gov. Kim Reynolds @IAGovernor]

Iowa is proud to be a part of Fostering the Future, building financial independence for children in foster care through @TrumpAccounts.

Thank you @FLOTUS and @SecScottBessent for empowering our state's FIRST dedicated savings and investment vehicle for foster youth!

[Office of the First Lady @FirstLadyOffice]

“Fostering the Future Accounts give foster children the same chance for asset ownership and long-term wealth building as every other American child. By investing in our foster youth now, we help strengthen America’s workforce, communities, and economic future.”

@FLOTUS @MELANIATRUMP

This historic measure is a first for the United States and is designed by the First Lady in tandem with the @USTreasury @SecScottBessent. Already, twenty-three Governors have pledged to set up Fostering the Future Accounts for children within their states’ care.

[Gov. Kim Reynolds @IAGovernor]

The state of Iowa and @Cognizant have been fully committed from the onset to employing an Iowa-based workforce throughout the duration of our engagement.

At no point during our negotiations was it even considered to employ H-1B visa holders.

The state’s daily IT operations will continue to be supported by Iowans, for Iowans, as they are now.

[Gov. Kim Reynolds @IAGovernor]

It was with heavy hearts that Kevin and I learned of the passing of Iowa Senator Julian Garrett.

Julian was a friend who served our state with integrity, whether as a cattle farmer, a Little League coach, an attorney in the executive branch, or a legislator.

For 15 years, we worked together to unleash opportunities for the families we served, and his impact will be felt by generations to come.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.

[Gov. Kim Reynolds @IAGovernor]

Thank you @SecKennedy for inspiring the national MAHA movement.

Iowa is proud to be a part of this mission to #LetKidsLiveRealLife!

[Secretary Kennedy @SecKennedy]

Iowa is showing the nation what it means to Make America Healthy Again.

I joined @IAGovernor Kim Reynolds to celebrate landmark legislation that improves school nutrition, increases physical activity, reduces excessive screen time, strengthens nutrition education for future doctors, and tackles the root causes of chronic disease.

[Gov. Kim Reynolds @IAGovernor]

Today, Iowa takes a critical step forward to modernize the state’s legacy data systems by partnering with tech industry leaders @awscloud and @Cognizant.

It’s an investment in security, agility and long‑term value for Iowans, with projected savings of more than $525M over 10 years.

Congrats to @holmesmurphyins on its continued growth and success! And thank you to the team and @BrokerTechVen for hosting innovative @InsurtechThe startups from Israel.

Iowa remains the nation's #1 insurance state because of leaders and companies like these.
