Progress Iowa

The Lahn team previously said this was a “witch hunt.” What about now? The criminal investigation and "misrepresentations" Lahn made to his parents about his assets sound pretty damning… www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/p...

Reminder: Over 100,000 Iowans rely on the ACA If Joe Mitchell wants to take this care away - everyone, including our rural hospitals, will pay the price.

Wondering how to keep up with all these debates? We’ve got you covered! #Iowa

In four weeks, Iowans will decide what our future looks like! We don’t have to sit by and watch our grocery and gas prices skyrocket, our public schools suffer and rural clinics close. Take action & register to vote today! iowavoterproject.com/register

Vote “NO” on Amendment 1 if you’d rather raise corporate taxes instead of sales taxes, property taxes or the fuel tax! voteNOiowa.info

Even FOX NEWS is condemning Trump's White House press ban. If his own allies are this alarmed by his behavior, the rest of us should be, too.

This is the GOP's choice: corporate profits over Iowa kids. iowastartingline.com/news/labor/i...

Sorry AG Bird, taking over $100k from polluters and siding with pesticide manufacturers is outrageous… #Emmys

As Trump makes more promises he can break this week, let’s remember this is also the guy who said he’d bring down prices on day one. How’s that going now?

Reminder: Rep. Ashley Hinson has taken over $64k from Big Oil. They got record profits. We got record diesel prices. #Iowa

Where’s Nunn?! 👀👀 www.crestonnews.com/article/930,...

Uh oh, Joe Mitchell’s feeling the heat after gaslighting us at the state fair. 👀 iowaindependentnews.com/elections/jo...

Corporations have spent decades rigging the rules against Iowa workers who want to form unions. It's time to flip the script. We're pushing to make September Labor Union Appreciation Month because our lawmakers should stand with us, not corporations. Join us: thankaunion.com

🚨🚨🚨 Rep. Hinson’s husband arranged a private meeting for his insurance lobbying group with ALL FOUR OF IOWA’S REPRESENTATIVES. Meanwhile, Iowans have to beg and still don’t see their lawmakers, who often hide from accountability.

While you fish for clout in St. Marys, Iowa's up to 17 measles cases (double last year). Hope the “MAHA superstar” discussed how RFK Jr.'s anti-vax crusade is actively hurting our state.

TOMORROW NIGHT: Learn to can. Feed your neighbors. Iowans are coming together to preserve food for families across three counties, because when Congress cuts SNAP, we look out for each other. RSVP to join the Des Moines event here: www.mobilize.us/progressiowa...

CAUGHT: Rep. Ashley Hinson lying about the Medicaid cuts she voted for. Unfortunately for her, Iowans aren’t falling for it as clinics close across our state.

Big Oil is raking in record profits from the Iran war. So when Rep. Hinson votes SIX TIMES against limiting U.S. military involvement in Iran, while pocketing $60k in donations from Big Oil (with 1/3 of it coming AFTER the war began) yeah, we have questions… heartlandsignal.com/2026/08/07/r...

Deep gratitude to Rusty Martin for sharing his story so honestly. It has been a privilege for our staff to collaborate with Rusty through the years, and this call for death with dignity in Iowa is just one more example of the service he has always shown. www.desmoinesregister.com/story/opinio...

Just something to think about while seeing recall after recall… www.cbsnews.com/news/fda-foo...

WE paid more at checkout. Corporations got the refund check. Make it make sense. www.cnn.com/2026/08/05/e...

Feeling like Odysseus dealing with these epic trials under Trump… www.cbsnews.com/news/gas-pri...

Reynolds wants a 99-county farewell tour to talk about her legacy. Sure. Here's the legacy, Governor: gutted public schools, a near-total abortion ban, kids kicked off food assistance, and dirty water. Iowans don't need to pay for a victory lap, we need a refund. www.kwqc.com/2026/07/13/g...

Seems like Rep. Ashley Hinson is tired of hearing about clinic closures in Iowa. WE’RE TIRED OF THEM CLOSING. You can't gut Medicaid and then act like everything's fine. Iowans aren’t falling for it. iowastartingline.com/news/hinson-...

Rep. Nunn took $30,000 from pesticide PACs while Iowa has the second-highest rate of new cancers in the country. Ask him why. iowaindependentnews.com/politics/rep...

Did you know? Trump’s CDC stopped monitoring cyclospora before the outbreak. What does Rep. Ashley Hinson think of the DOGE cuts she was praising now??? www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

Lahn said he wants to build off the work of Gov. Reynolds, the most unpopular governor in America… We’ve got bigger goals: clean water, fully-funded public schools and a living wage for all! #WorldCup

Are you SICK OF IT? Rising health care costs. Medicaid cuts. TOMORROW: Join us to hear from Iowans impacted by our broken health care system and learn how to take action. mobilize.us/progressiowa/event/985521/

POV: Your rep votes to cut Medicaid & takes no responsibility when clinics close. Thanks to Peter, Jerry and state Representative Dr. Megan Srinivas for not letting Rep. Zach Nunn get away with this.

“What good is abundance if it poisons our neighbors? What good is winning politically if we cannot hand our children a glass of clean water?” ruralroutes.substack.com/p/airing-iow...

Did you know Miller-Meeks accepted over $55,000 from corporate PACS after voting to give them massive tax breaks last year? 👀👀👀 unrigoureconomy.com/wp-content/u...

Nearly 25,000 Iowans lost food assistance this year. Congressman Zach Nunn cut it & is now BRAGGING online. Hunger isn't an achievement.

Another year of Pride in the books, but the work continues! Thank you to every Iowan who marched, cheered, and showed up with love this month & beyond. #CRPride

Iowa’s feeling the heat, but we can’t swim at 10 of our state beaches because of high E. coli and algal toxins. Once again, corporate polluters get to run the show and Iowans pay the price… www.weareiowa.com/article/tech...

NEW: RFK Jr. now caught pressuring Libertarian candidates in BOTH IA-02 and IA-03 to drop out. Looks like Mitchell & Rep. Nunn fear a fair race… 👀👀👀 littlevillagemag.com/rfk-jr-recor...

Four years ago today, Roe was overturned and Iowans are paying the price. MAGA Republicans control our bodies with a six-week abortion ban & we rank last in OB-GYNs per capita. This isn't leadership. It's dangerous overreach.

Looks like Nunn’s scared. His team tried to pressure a Libertarian challenger to drop out. When that failed, they filed a formal challenge and got him kicked off the ballot over a name discrepancy. 👀👀👀 iowastartingline.com/news/nunn-ki...

Iowa’s prisons are already understaffed & near capacity. Now, there’s an expected 50% prison population increase over just THREE YEARS because of this dangerous MAGA policy. 🚨🚨🚨

Trillionaires should not be a thing. If the wealthy paid their fair share, Iowa wouldn't be watching schools and hospitals shut down. But MAGA Republicans keep cutting taxes for the rich while our communities crumble.
