43rd governor of Iowa. 5th generation Iowan. Former county treasurer, state senator & lt. governor. Unleashing opportunities!
Iowa, USA
Joined April 2017
It’s no surprise Iowa is one of the three states that has fully recovered in both reading and math since the pandemic. We prioritized students by reopening schools for in-person learning in August 2020 and passing laws to ensure evidence-based instruction in reading and math.
Education stagnation: Only 3 states have fully bounced back in both math and reading since the pandemic: Iowa, Mississippi, and Tennessee. Just 6 of 23 states beat 2019 math levels, and only 4 of 20 exceeded 2019 ELA levels. The recovery gap remains wide. Grateful for this

The change at the border between President Biden and President Trump is nothing short of staggering, and two numbers best tell that story: 189,604 and 20.

On Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, we honor the thousands of servicemembers and civilians who were killed and wounded in this horrific attack on our country. This day is a solemn reminder that our freedom isn’t free, and we are grateful for every American who serves in uniform.

They called our ads "VILE" and "INFLAMMATORY"—because they were true, and they worked. No one rattles the woke left like we do. And we’re just getting started. Visit our profile & follow @citizens_sanity to join us on the frontlines of the war for common sense.

In a study by Gallup, Iowans rated our health care system the best in the nation, and it’s clear why! We’ve focused on strengthening our system, increasing residency slots, and incentivizing physicians to practice in rural areas by doubling our investment in loan repayments. We
