Mom, educator, and state representative putting people over politics. Running for US Congress because #IA03 needs someone fighting for us. Flipping #IA03 = Dem House

It’s official– I’m running for US Congress in #IA-03!

This district is my home. I’m running for Congress because Iowans need a fighter for them in Washington and Zach Nunn isn’t up to the job.

Join our campaign and help us win:

Tens of thousands of Iowans rely on the Affordable Care Act for their healthcare, and Zach Nunn voted to raise their healthcare premiums.

Happy Veterans Day 🇺🇸 Thank you to all those who have served our country and put their lives on the line to defend our values. As the daughter of two Air Force veterans, I have learned firsthand the courage it takes to serve, and I’m so proud of their service to our country.

I mean, seriously? Zach Nunn was partying it up in Mar-a-Lago while the government is shut down, government workers are going without paychecks, SNAP is on hold, and tens of thousands of Iowans are facing their healthcare premiums doubling or tripling.

We need more than promises— we need to protect healthcare for the 125,000+ Iowans at risk of seeing their healthcare premiums skyrocket when they’re already struggling to afford them. Iowans deserve fighters who won’t compromise on what they need. fortune.com/2025/11/09/g...

Even with a deal, Trump appears unlikely to support an extension of the health benefits.

Zach Nunn made a lot of promises during his campaigns, and he hasn't delivered. Iowans deserve better than a Congressman who says one thing, and does another.

There is so much that gives me hope about this district. When our communities come together, great things can happen all over this state. Make sure to stop by Hedgie's the next time you are in Bedford!

263,000 Iowans are at risk of losing food assistance for November because of Zach Nunn’s inaction. That’s why I signed onto this letter with my colleagues urging Governor Reynolds to take immediate action to help Iowa families. It’s time to stop playing politics with people’s lives.

Happy Halloween IA-03! In the Des Moines-area tradition of telling jokes while trick-or-treating, I hope you enjoy this one about Congressman Nunn and his spooky disappearing act! Nothing scarier than a Congressman that disappears on his constituents.

I’m honored to have the endorsement and support of CWA Local 7102. Unions like CWA helped build my family’s foundation– I know they need a partner in Congress who is willing to stand up for them every day and is ready to make working people the core of their campaign.

Great to be back in Adams County yesterday for the Southwest Iowa IDP Hall of Fame and Candidate Forum! When I’m your congresswoman, you can count on me to make rural Iowa a priority.

Big thanks to United Steelworkers Local 310 for having us out to their Trunk or Treat to kick off Halloween week!

Perry Area Democrats are fired up and ready for change in Washington! Thank you for having me out to speak last night!

The impacts of this shutdown are real— government employees are going without pay checks and hungry families might now going to have go without SNAP benefits. And Zach Nunn’s response is typical DC: all talk, no action.

Congratulations to Renee Hardman, Democratic nominee for Iowa Senate District 16. Renee's experience as a city councilor and community leader will serve her well, and I look forward to calling her my Senator!

Iowa is at risk of a recession, and brain drain is one of the main reasons why. We need to make Iowa a welcoming place, and a place our kids want to stay. That is what I will fight for in DC.
October 16, 2025 at 8:17 PM
We are now two weeks into the Government Shutdown with no end in sight, and Zach Nunn is still hiding from his constituents. Working Iowans deserve a representative who will work for them, not billionaires.

On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we celebrate the Indigenous communities that came before us in Iowa, and those who are still here today.

We also recognize the struggles that Iowa’s Indigenous communities have faced, and honor their strength and resilience.

I am honored to have the support of Hold the Line in this race for Congress. They understand the stakes of this election, and believe, like I do, that we must protect our Democracy. I am grateful to be on their team!

Hear from Sue and Bob Dvorsky about why they are on #TeamKonfrst: “Jennifer has earned the respect of Iowans across the board, because they trust her to match her words and her actions. She'll offer the Iowans of the 3rd District the representation they deserve.”

10 days into the government shutdown, Zach Nunn is still choosing to raise our insurance premiums instead of doing his job and passing a budget. Kaiser is projecting premiums in the 3rd Congressional District to increase by 235%, and we have Zach Nunn to thank for it.

“In or at risk of Recession.” That’s what’s happening to our economy in Iowa. Zach Nunn voted for Trump’s tariffs and slashed our rural healthcare funding. Working class Iowans deserve a voice in DC, not just a rubber stamp for the President’s agenda.
October 10, 2025 at 3:36 PM
We need our politicians to work for Iowans, not just big donors. That’s why I’m running this campaign to put working class Iowans first.

Zach Nunn voted over and over again for the Trump Tariffs, creating a looming Farm Crisis, and up to billions in lost revenue for our farmers. Our farmers want sales, not subsidies, and this trade war could wreck Iowa’s economy.
Big harvest no comfort to Iowa farmers, who worry about another Farm Crisis
Trump talks of more aid as farmers face a harvest of losses. They say they'd rather have a trade deal
