In the state legislature, Joe Mitchell voted against capping the cost of insulin and then took a check from Pfizer. On Tuesday, we need to send people who will champion working people, not the ultra wealthy and big corporations.

I’m running for Congress to take on the corruption. My neighbors deserve someone in Washington who is fighting for them.

Yesterday, I stood outside Joe's housing development to call out his corruption. He voted for tax credits that let his real estate companies pocket millions. He took another $1M in tax credits to build a development that he moved into a week before he launched his campaign.
The Clear Lake address of Joe Mitchell, the Republican candidate in Iowa’s 2nd district, was listed for rent on Zillow as recently as this month. The campaign claims its just how Mitchell’s company advertises other properties on the app. iowastartingline.com/news/po…

Q: Are you the one who’s going to turn Texas blue? @JamesTalarico: I’m not interested in turning Texas blue. I wanna win this seat so that I can fight for all 31 million Texans — whether they’re Democrats, independents, or Republicans. My party talks about turning Texas blue a lot. Republicans talk about keeping Texas red. I think the best color for Texas is purple. When you have a purple state and competitive elections, it forces every politician in both parties to stay on their toes. My hope in this race is that we can end 30 years of one-party rule and get competitive elections back in Texas so politicians are actually solving problems.

This last election was decided by just 799 votes. In 5 days we’re going to close that gap and finally retire Mariannette Miller-Meeks. #IA01

I try to keep it clean but government insiders taking away the power of the auditor to find waste, fraud, and abuse of tax dollars is bulls*^t. If I'm elected, we will work together to restore the powers to the auditor's office - no matter who is elected - because that is what taxpayers deserve.

I’m Mom. I’m a Lutheran minister. I was a hospital chaplain, a parish pastor, and spent nine years at the DMARC Food Pantry. I’ve spent my life serving my neighbors. Zach Nunn shows up for corporate donors and Donald Trump. I’ll show up for you.

It was an honor to visit the Meskwaki Settlement to meet with the Tribal Council and visit their Cultural Center and Museum. In Congress, I will work to protect tribal sovereignty and look forward to collaborations with the Meskwaki tribe to advance their priorities and needs.

I spent 10 months running to flip IA03 because I know how important it is to bring balance to Iowa and to flip the U.S. House. Today I was proud to vote for my opponent in that primary, @SarahforIowa and I hope you’ll do the same. The stakes are too high.

#IA03 WaPo: Woman in ad who said a Democrat endangers kids pleaded guilty to endangering kids Shellie Flockhart, who called Iowa Democratic House candidate Sarah Trone Garriott “dangerous” for kids, pleaded guilty after authorities said she drove drunk with her children in the car in 2017.

Vote @Lindsay4Iowa IA02. She will never praise Donald Trump or party at Mar a Lago. It’s a low bar but a safe bet. Oh and she’ll also fight like hell for you every day. This guy shows who he’s loyal to right here and it isn’t you.

It was an honor to present President Trump with my own 'Man of the Century' award. For doing more for America than any other President.

By election day every voter in Ohio will know: 1) That @amyactonoh was raped by her stepfather, removed from their house, and the mother stayed with the rapist instead of protecting her children. 2) That Acton has not seen her mother in 50 years. 3) And be disgusted by this ad from what appears to be a crazy woman. This ad by Vivek will backfire and seal his fate to the ash bin of politics. wapo.st/4k7Hvcv
