Good morning and Happy Game Day to those who celebrate, except for everyone from Minnesota. The “twin cities” look nothing alike, there’s really only 9,000 lakes, and it wasn’t a fair catch. You people are living a lie and a gopher is just an underground rat. Go Hawks!

Privatized Medicaid has driven up costs and made access to care worse. We can stop it.

Good morning and Happy Gameday to those who celebrate. Including UNI fans. There’s no reason to not like UNI. C’mon. Unless they win. Then I will modify tweet later. Go Hawks!

Good morning and Happy Game Day to those who celebrate except for anyone who lives west of I-35, people who are convinced that a bird is a good mascot representation of a weather event, and any public universities that struggle with school colors. #GoHawks

Should come as no surprise, as State Auditor, I'm a numbers guy. When it comes to support from Iowans vs. out of state donors, here's a couple interesting ones:
The image is split into two sections comparing donation statistics. The left side features Zach Lahn with a red background, showing 83.92% out-of-state donations and 16.08% Iowa donations. The right side features Rob Sand with a green background, showing 61.45% Iowa donations and 38% out-of-state donations. A background of U.S. dollar bills is visible.

My opponent has had 2 tv stations release fact checks on his lies about me, that’s how misleading they are. He’s got one thing right: I do like pizza 🤷

A trailing economy that isn’t growing, some of the lowest wages in the country, and layoffs stacking up…the solution to solving some of our state’s toughest challenges isn’t four more years of the failed status quo that got us here. Zach Lahn said he's "grateful" for Kim Reynolds' work & is committed to continuing her failed leadership. It’s time for change.
A news article from KCJJ discusses a report revealing Iowa's low ranking in economic growth. The report from Trump Administration's Bureau of Economic Analysis places Iowa near the bottom for 2026 growth forecasts, with a negative GNP and 48th ranking in government reports. Iowa also ranks low in economic activity and business friendliness according to Wallet Hub and CNBC. The state holds the lowest average private hourly earnings in the Midwest. Other low-ranking states include Kentucky, West Virginia, Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, and Mississippi.

I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It is the principal source of success in life.

Iowans deserve answers. 2.5 weeks ago we challenged our opponent to to do his own 100 Townhall Tour and join me for 4 debates. We haven’t heard a thing and he hasn’t held a single public event in those 2.5 weeks. 🤷‍♂️

Our opponent's first attack ad is already misleading Iowans and even caused the local anchors featured in it to issue a fact-check. Be skeptical and careful with what Zach Lahn says.

A $205K/yr taxpayer funded job for your former staffer that didn’t even get posted to the public, just days after firing 200 state employees, is the corruption you get when you have ten years of one party control. My opponent spent 10 years as a paid political operative for them, count on more of the same.

This is so insanely corrupt, I can’t even believe it. More than half the donors to Trump’s $400 million White House ballroom just won over $50 billion in new federal contracts in six months. And here’s the part that should make your blood boil. Sixteen of these 27 donors were facing federal enforcement actions, antitrust reviews, labor cases, securities charges. Many of those cases have been quietly dropped or scaled back since Trump took office. You write a check, your legal problems disappear. That’s not a coincidence. The White House won’t even release the full donor list. They’re hiding it on purpose, because daylight is the one thing pay-to-play can’t survive. A federal judge already ruled ballroom construction has to stop until Congress authorizes it. Government is supposed to serve the people, not auction itself off to the highest bidder. When access goes to whoever pays the most, working families always end up paying the price. We either end the corruption, or the corruption will end us. wapo.st/3QmJjSz
