Expanding access to broadband in rural communities means supporting:
🏥 Critical infrastructure
💰 Rural economies
📈 Small businesses
I was honored to have my Middle Mile for Rural America Act included in the Farm Bill, to help close the digital divide between rural and urban communities.
Small businesses are the backbone of our economy.
That’s why the Working Families Tax Cuts would make the 20% Small Business Deduction permanent - helping create an estimated 1.2 million jobs and adding more than $75 billion annually in small business economic growth.
This supports small businesses, workers, and economic opportunity across America.
Lynette and I are praying for the families and loved ones of those senselessly killed in Muscatine tonight.
We grieve this tragic loss of life and stand with the people of Muscatine.
Thank you to all the law enforcement officers and first responders.
Thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts, Republicans made the 20% small business deduction permanent.
This is projected to create over 1.2 million jobs over the next decade.
It’s common sense that taxpayer dollars should be used to support those who need assistance—not sent overseas.
That’s why I introduced the No American Benefits Abroad Act, which would prohibit welfare recipients from transferring taxpayer-funded benefits abroad.
Americans expect welfare programs to serve their intended purpose: helping those in need here at home, not funding transfers overseas.
For too long, foreign entities have acquired farmland with little oversight or accountability.
That’s why I was pleased to see my FARMLAND Act included in the Farm Bill to strengthen oversight, close security gaps, and ensure America’s farmland remains in the hands of future generations of Americans.
Great news for our manufacturers!
For the fifth month straight, America’s manufacturing sector has exceeded May expectations.
I remain committed to working with President Trump to ensure we continue to expand markets.
@SLOTUS has announced that the annual Summer Reading Challenge is back for K–8 students!
The challenge begins today and runs through September 4, 2026. This is a great opportunity for students across Iowa’s 4th District to read 12 books, earn a certificate, receive an America 250-themed bookmark, and be entered for a chance to visit our nation’s capital.
I encourage all eligible students to participate and make reading part of their summer.
This month is National Dairy Month!
Representing one of the largest dairy and cattle-producing districts in the nation, I’m proud to support policies like the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act that strengthen opportunities for Iowa farmers while ensuring the next generation has access to nutritious dairy products.
Over the weekend, my District Director, Abby, had the honor of attending the welcome home ceremony for men and women assigned to the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 34th Infantry Division.
It is always a privilege to honor brave Iowans as they reunite with their families after months of service overseas. We are grateful for their sacrifice and dedication to our nation. Please join me in welcoming them home and thanking them for their service.
Ethanol accounts for 57% of Iowa’s corn crop, helping produce fuel, feed, and valuable co-products used around the globe.
Year-round E15 is essential to ensuring Iowa farmers can remain competitive and continue expanding markets for long-term success.
Thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts, Republicans are boosting take-home pay by $1,300 for millions of tipped workers.
Proud to help deliver no tax on tips.
Last week, Iowans let me know they strongly believe we must support rural moms access to quality labor and delivery care.
That’s why I was proud to introduce the Rural MOMS Act, to ensure expecting mothers in our rural communities have access to high quality maternal care.
Agriculture is the economic engine of Iowa, and our farmers and producers work long hours and make unseen sacrifices to feed and fuel our country. Those sacrifices can take a toll on our farm producers.
That’s why I made sure my Farmers First Act was included in the Farm Bill, to fully fund the Farm and Ranch Assistance Network, ensuring our farmers and producers have the support they need in times of crisis.
Grinnell Regional Medical Center is one of several Iowa hospitals that benefits from the Rural Community Hospital Demonstration program, which supports rural hospitals and improves patient care by providing more reliable Medicare support.
I recently joined @RepFeenstra in supporting efforts to reauthorize this program. It has been vital to the long-term health & economic stability of our rural communities.
I also helped secure a major investment for the labor and delivery unit at Grinnell Regional Medical Center. I’ll keep fighting to advance policies that strengthen & protect access to care for Iowa families!
Trump Accounts are live today!
Eligible children can receive a $1,000 federal contribution, allowing families to invest in the next generation and build long-term financial opportunity.
Thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts, Iowa producers will save $400 million thanks to affordable crop insurance premiums.
This is a real win for our producers.
Honored to lead this effort with my colleagues in the House.
The Rural Community Hospital Demonstration Program delivers critical support for rural hospitals across Iowa’s 4th District.
GOOD NEWS: The U.S. Senate has unanimously passed Sen. @ChuckGrassley's bill to extend the Rural Community Hospital Demonstration program, which is a lifeline for rural hospitals.
The bill will support care for Iowans in Ft Dodge, Grinnell, Newton and Spirit Lake.
