Friend,
Iowa Republicans think they're untouchable.
They've spent years taking Hawkeye State voters for granted — and now they're making those same voters pay for it.
Tariffs have gutted the farm economy. China's retaliatory strikes are crushing a state where agriculture is one in five dollars of GDP. Rural hospitals are on the chopping block. Over 260,000 Iowans rely on food assistance that Republicans cut.
And Iowa's Republican delegation? They celebrated it. They called the largest Medicaid cuts in American history a "once-in-a-generation victory."
We think Iowa voters deserve to know exactly who cast those votes — and why.
That's why American Bridge is going into Iowa right now.
We're launching efforts across the state defining these Republican candidates by their own records:
• Mariannette Miller-Meeks, who cheered putting healthcare for 86,000 Iowans at risk
• Zach Nunn, who cast the deciding vote to keep Trump's trade war alive and prices high
• Ashley Hinson, who voted twice against capping insulin prices for seniors
• Joe Mitchell, who barely spends any time in the district he wants to represent
• Zach Lahn, who claims to champion farmers while supporting the tariffs that were destroying them
Everyone says hyper-partisanship can't be broken. We believe there's a ceiling — and that ceiling is reached when the party you've trusted makes your life too hard to ignore.
Iowans are at that ceiling.
Will you chip in today to help us hold these Republicans accountable?
Iowa isn't just winnable. It's a proving ground for whether accountability still matters in American politics.
Let's prove it does.
For Iowa,
Team ABP
