Last week, 250 Iowa National Guardsmen returned home. These brave men and women exemplify the very best of our state, and we remain eternally grateful for their service.

Farmers are the backbone of our country, the hardworking men and women who feed and fuel our nation. But too often, their needs are far from the focus of policy discussions in Washington.
Case in point: Every year, nearly 100 farmers in the United States lose their lives to the top cause of on-farm deaths: tractor rollovers. The tragedy is that these deaths are almost entirely preventable, and Congress can help.

As we enter tax season, I often hear from seniors that they have been worried about the policy fights here in Washington. After a lifetime in the workforce, raising families, serving their communities, and paying into the system, many retirees are now living on fixed incomes while tackling the cost for groceries, housing, health care, and energy. Seniors deserve results on bringing affordable solutions to the inflationary harms brought by the policies of former President Biden’s economic agenda.
One year ago, when President Trump returned to the White House, the American people gave the federal government a mandate to restore law and order, and curb the uncontrolled flow of illegal immigration. The President vowed to prioritize the American people, bring criminals to justice, and strengthen public safety. This meant reversing Biden-era open border policies, that invited chaos and put unvetted illegal immigrants before the safety of the American people.
