Democrat running to take back Iowa's 1st Congressional District
Pinned
They say you need a good elevator pitch to run for office.

Well, here's mine. My name is Taylor Wettach, and I'm a 7th-generation Iowan. I quit my job as a lawyer after my law firm caved to Trump. Now, I'm running for Congress to flip Iowa's 1st and take back the House.
Reminder: Miller-Meeks’s supported Trump’s reckless tariff policies and the Big Beautiful Bill that cuts SNAP benefits for thousands of Iowa households.

Iowa is 2nd in the nation for farm bankruptcies – driven by tariffs, rising costs, and corporate consolidation. Our farms are key to reviving rural economies and communities. We must support innovation & climate-smart practices that keep farm operations profitable and sustainable.
With falling profits, Iowa farmers facing 'extreme financial distress,' more bankruptcies
Veteran bankruptcy attorney says Iowa farmers in extreme financial distress are at a "level higher than I’ve seen in a long time."

Donald Trump’s violent rhetoric is screwed up, it’s un-American, and it puts innocent lives at risk- including those committed to serving the public.

We must come together to forcefully condemn this violent and hateful rhetoric, and to stand in solidarity with our brave service members.

I cannot believe that I'm typing this, but the President of the United States just called for the murder of his political opposition.

Even Fox News can’t spin their own poll: 76% of voters view the economy negatively & most blame Trump.

Families struggle to cover the basics, while Miller-Meeks does nothing, but cheer on Trump who gives Argentina $40 billion & builds himself a VIP gold-plated ball room.

Trump's approval hits new lows as 76% view economy negatively in the latest Fox News poll. Rising costs for groceries, utilities spark voter dissatisfaction nationwide.

We met Lori while door knocking last week, and we are truly grateful that she shared her story with us. Her dedication as a caregiver and advocate is extraordinary, but no one should have to carry that weight alone. Too many families are stretched thin emotionally, psychologically, and financially.

With all of the chaos and cruelty being wrecked right now, we cannot become numb to the erosion of our democracy.

It’s happening in real time as Trump threatens the freedom of press & defends foreign leaders who approve the murder of journalists. We cannot stay silent or else we become complicit.

Our leaders should've supported the release of the #EpsteinFiles from the very beginning, no matter the party in power. Sadly, Miller-Meeks stood by as Trump fought tooth & nail to block it, denying survivors justice & the American people the truth. Her vote today doesn't change that.

We had a great time at the Des Moines County Democratic Party’s 2025 Fall Fundraiser!

Our campaign is committed to representing every county in our District, and this was our FIFTH visit to Des Moines County since beginning our campaign.

Let’s be clear: Mariannette Miller-Meeks is lying when she claims she has ‘always supported’ releasing the #EpsteinFiles.

Costs keep rising & families are struggling – groceries, health care, everything.

Miller-Meeks refuses to help. No health-care tax credits. SNAP blocked. Folks go hungry & she looks the other way.

But Iowa families are strong. With real leadership, we will turn this around.

MSNBC airs compilation of Americans struggling with high grocery prices:

"It really hit me today while getting groceries how expensive things are getting. I got 3 bags of groceries and it was $105... This coffee last August was $12.98. I just went and got this for $19.77... $10 for bread and eggs."

"Rural families are worried about hospitals closing under Medicaid cuts ... They were local farmers, retirees, working parents, & what came through loud & clear was again, anxiety about affordability ..."

And Miller-Meeks had no solutions to offer.

Time for new leadership.

The government may have reopened, but the damage Trump and Miller-Meeks caused isn’t going away. It’s time for real leadership that puts Iowa families first – not the rich and powerful, not party bosses. Here’s my message to Miller-Meeks.

This isn’t the Iowa we deserve. Marie is fighting the fight of her life against cancer & she shouldn’t have to worry about her Social Security or how she’ll afford basic goods.

Under Miller-Meeks too many people are facing that cruel reality. We can and must do better.
