Throughout my time in Congress, I have remained steadfast in my commitment to delivering year-round, nationwide E15 for our farmers, rural economies, and consumers. I am extremely proud of our work to pass this commonsense, win-win solution that will provide much-needed certainty to our fuel supply chain. I urge my Senate colleagues to do the same and quickly pass this legislation.
The Farm, Food, and National Security Act delivers certainty for farmers and rural communities across this country. Every American is affected by the Farm Bill, and this bipartisan legislation responsibly addresses their needs across all 12 titles.
We must get this across the finish line for our nation’s farmers and rural families.
I am pleased to announce Community Project Funding is heading to southeast Minnesota: $1.5M for the new Spring Grove Fire Station and more than $1.6M for Gundersen St. Elizabeth’s Hospital in Wabasha. Proud to support investments that strengthen public safety and health care across #MN01.
Today is election day and polls are open in Minnesota. Please find your polling place. It has been the honor of a lifetime to represent southern Minnesota in Congress, I am asking for your vote today to continue serving you! https://t.co/3TapuqZo2M #mn01
Farmers in #MN01 are facing decreased income, increased input costs, supply chain challenges, & burdensome regulations. At today’s @HouseAgGOP hearing, I made clear to @SecVilsack that I will continue to stand up for farmers despite the Biden Administration's poor track record.
Honestly, judging you if you tuned into this instead of the real event in Des Moines tonight. A statement win for the Drake Bulldogs tonight in the Valley.
The Farm Bill is a critical agenda item that must be passed this Congress.
Today, 60 of my Republican colleagues joined me in a letter to @SpeakerJohnson highlighting the importance of swiftly passing a strong Farm Bill written by farmers for farmers, and by rural communities for rural communities.

Check out this week’s @agripulse Newsmakers where I talk about the EPA’s recent decision on the sale of year-round E-15, as well as share an update on the work we're doing on the House Ag committee to gear up for the next Farm Bill.

Korean War Veteran Bill Rector of Denver, Iowa, captured his service on an 8mm camera, allowing future generations to better understand and appreciate the history of “the forgotten war.” Thanks to @HISTORY for helping to tell his story.
Strong defense of the IA Caucuses by a well-respected observer of American politics (and transplant!), Dr. Rachel Paine Caufield.
While so many IA Dems have seemingly given up, it is heartening to see academia, local media, and @IowaGOP still fighting for #FITN. #iapolitics 1/3
BREAKING: my statement on last night's ruling👇
Our campaign submitted more than 5,000 signatures—1,500 more signatures than are required to qualify for the ballot.
We are confident that we have met the requirements to be on the ballot. 🧵1/5
Iowans deserve to know how much of their hard-earned paychecks are going to be wasted on misguided priorities like funding for butterflies & desert fish, when my constituents are busy trying to put food on their tables, provide for their kids & keep their family farms operating.
