“In 2023, Republicans limited the state auditor’s ability to demand information from state agencies and officials while conducting investigations. Wettach said he would stand up to efforts aimed at weakening the role of the office.”

“Wettach grew up in Muscatine in a family he said valued public service. He cited his professional background as an attorney analyzing complex records and evidence as preparation for the auditor’s role, which he said must produce findings that can withstand legal scrutiny.”

Wettach said accountability matters as Iowans face high living costs.“When everyday Iowans are tightening their belts, the last thing they should have to worry about is whether the taxes they pay are being wasted or misused,” Wettach said.

This needs to stop. Another U.S. citizen was senselessly shot and killed by federal agents in Minneapolis today – the latest in an outrageous pattern of deadly force under this administration.

We met with so many incredible folks, and had meaningful conversations in Pleasantville, Knoxville, and Oskaloosa.

Every stop reminds us why it’s so important to go everywhere and make sure every voice in our district is heard.

Donald Trump and his family have enriched themselves to the tune of $4 billion during his time in office.

We need anti-corruption reforms that will hold them accountable, which is why I've rolled out the strongest Anti-Corruption plan of any candidate in Iowa. We need to #EndCitizensUnited.

We had a great time meeting folks at El Rey Azteca in Knoxville!

We are committed to showing up everywhere and fighting for a fair shot for our communities, together. Thank you again to everyone who came out in the snow and shared their stories.

We need leaders with the humility to listen, the courage to tell the truth, and the backbone to fight for the people they represent.

And that is my commitment to you.

In a moment when federal power is being stretched without checks and balances, it’s inspiring to see our communities come together to stand up for our rights!

Thank you to ACLU, Indivisible, and other local partners for the powerful reminder that together, we are way stronger than autocracy.

At our Maquoketa stop, I paused mid-speech to listen to this gentleman’s experience calling Miller-Meeks’ office regarding her vote to the Big Ugly Bill, taking away health care from thousands of Iowans.

Pretty sure Miller-Meeks is either not getting the message, or ignoring her constituents. #IA01

Real strength comes from service, not power; from fairness, not favoritism; and from community, not greed. That’s why this campaign isn’t about left versus right. It’s about right versus wrong.

Follow my journey to unrig the system and to fight for Iowans.

Aside from 2020, last year was the worst year for job growth since the 2009 global financial crisis – while families are already being crushed by rising costs for health care, housing, utilities, food, and child care.
