America is supposed to be the model for peaceful transfers of power for the world. Today, we witnessed looting of public buildings, ransacking of taxpayer’s property, and other despicable behavior. We are better than this. We should hold these people accountable. @winmc https://t.co/1In6h0iOG6

NOW OPEN: Applications for the Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program are open through 2/12. The program provides direct financial assistance to fire departments & EMS organizations. Money can be used toward training, equipment, vehicles & more. #IA03 https://t.co/bFl7CefxQe

Proud to help send the Water Resources Development Act to the President today. Since last year's floods, I've been working to ensure Iowans can recover, rebuild, and protect against future floods – and this legislation provides key tools to help. #IA03 https://t.co/q5rYJpLJaB

This move to limit @USTreasury's future ability to support our economy is baffling–esp as initial unemployment claims rise for the 2nd week in a row. I look forward to getting an explanation from Secretary Mnuchin at our @FSCDems hearing w/ him next week. https://t.co/nOqbWgq3Ef

DEADLINE EXTENDED TO 12/4: if you're at risk of losing your power/gas/water coverage because of #COVID19-related financial trouble, federal CARES Act money is available to help cover utility costs. Qualifying #IA03 families can apply to up to $2,000 here: https://t.co/swrdFuhZwJ

Measures to protect renters, homeowners, student borrowers, & others will expire on January 1st unless a new agreement can be reached on #COVID19 rlief. This isn't something that can wait for a new Congress. Iowans need a deal, and need it now. #IA03 https://t.co/rgUR8Kr6wA

It took the U.S. nearly 100 days to log its first 1 million cases of #COVID19. Now, one million U.S. cases are recorded in under a week. This explosion of cases won't stop until we all do part to slow the spread: #WearAMask, #SocialDistancing, & avoid large groups. #IA03 QT @ryanstruyk: The US just reported 11 million coronavirus cases: 0M-1M: 98 days 1M-2M: 44 days 2M-3M: 27 days 3M-4M: 15 days 4M-… https://t.co/UV6bl8UtbU)

I'm so grateful for all of the grassroots work – and lasting enthusiasm – we saw among folks in Guthrie County during this campaign. Thank you @DemsGuthrie for all you did – and continue to do! – for our families & communities in #IA03. ❤️ Couldn’t have done it without you.

#ELECTIONDAY is here Iowa! We are ALL HANDS ON DECK to make sure folks who haven’t made a plan to vote yet get to the polls today for this history election! ️ If you haven’t already, make your voice heard: https://t.co/pMhk62VqpF #IA03 https://t.co/cooZbZFU0m

Great to see my friends @rassmith62, @Miller4IA, @CynthiaPash, and Danny Horman with @afscme_c61 at the drive in too! https://t.co/jJMeiZgWID

We are officially *7 DAYS* – just 1 week – out from Election Day, folks! And we need all hands on deck to GOTV in #IA03! Make sure you have a plan to VOTE: ⤵️ https://t.co/ZzTef09Ia2 https://t.co/VZ8ysulYha

I’m proud of my work this Congress. Folks from across central & southwest Iowa know that – whether it's trade, disaster relief for our impacted farmers, or protecting health care access for every IA family – I'll always stand up for our communities. #IA03 https://t.co/5wrtvtBnnF

We’re only 10 DAYS out from Election Day, #IA03 Have you made your plan to vote yet? Find your voting options! ➡️https://t.co/pMhk62VqpF https://t.co/D4IJQyNRwm

Thanks for having me on @NWDMdems – you guys have me fired up & ready to GOTV here in the home stretch! #IA03 https://t.co/G7FEkdZN39

With over 1,550 Iowans lost to #COVID19, we cannot let these tragic deaths become just another number to us. This threat helps tell the stories of some of the many Iowans - remembered by their families and friends - who we have lost in this pandemic. ⤵️ #IA03 QT @DMRegister: Today, we share the names of the 218 Iowans we’ve identified. https://t.co/NzDcwIWM4f)

Had a blast hanging out and rallying with the @DallasCoDem today in Perry! With less than 4 weeks until election day, it was great to see so many voters who are fired up to get their friends, family, and neighbors to vote and VOTE EARLY! #IA03 https://t.co/uAjwrZ6C24

Whether it’s working to protect Social Security and Medicare benefits or lowering the costs of prescription drug prices – I will never stop fighting for Iowa’s seniors.⬇️ #IA03 https://t.co/KjqXCjh7jc

We also need to keep working to expand and keep telemedicine available for those hit hardest by #COVID19. Together, we can make sure every Iowan gets the care they deserve. Will you join me in this fight #IA03? (3/3) ⤵️ https://t.co/5odWZu8p7h

I remember how nerve-racking medical bills & managing insurance was for my family. Imagine how many more people would feel that burden w/ cuts to vital programs like Medicaid & Medicare –– that’s why Hannah and I will never stop standing up for our most vulnerable Iowans. (2/3)

JUST IN: The House just passed the #CleanEconomyJobs and Innovation Act to: Increase #EnergyEfficiency Support renewable developments Modernize electrical grids Combat carbon pollution It also included my amendment to expand R&D funding for our biofuels sector! #IA03 https://t.co/bKd86xBwMW

Not only does #IA03's Polk County have the most #COVID19 deaths of any Iowa (more than the next three counties combined), it has the most active outbreaks at our long-term care facilities. Half of the Iowans we're lost were in these homes. We need to ensure they're protected.

Our amazing organizers & volunteers are working hard to register voters across #IA03, because they know that our healthcare, economy – and our future – are all on the ballot this fall. ⏰ Early voting starts in less than 2 weeks! Request your ballot: ⬇ https://t.co/ImCmST1PYy https://t.co/S5g88e9p4O

Iowans w/ pre-existing conditions, especially our seniors, need to know that access to their health care is secure. #IA03HealthcareStories like Mike’s are an important reminder of what’s at stake in this election. #IA03 (1/3) https://t.co/b9Aj3WXF1y

ICYMI - Yesterday, the House passed the bill I sponsored with @RepLucyMcBath to improve protections for children at our child care facilities. As a mother, I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your

When the @DeptVetAffairs stopped Al from getting a medical device to help with his diabetes, my team helped him appeal and reverse the decision. If you're having trouble with the VA or another federal agency, my #IA03 team and I are here to help: https://t.co/YCbVYsGChn https://t.co/U88U1XFLEg

As Iowa's producers are still surveying the #derecho damage, the @EPA is considering nearly 100 SRE waivers that will further destroy demand & cause more pain for our farmers. This administration must uphold the #RFS amdSTOP trying to circumvent the law. https://t.co/sG5pxnpFiu

If a federal disaster declaration is needed, it needs to happen quickly to ensure aid gets to those in need. I wrote to @IAGovernor today to offer my help securing this federal assistance, & urged her to join me in seeking aid for local governments. #IA03 https://t.co/OY1JLt6rca

What's everyone up to on Aug. 9th at 5pm? Our #TeamAxne Organizers are hosting virtual house parties all across the district and I hope you'll join them to learn about the ways you can join our people powered campaign. Sign up here: https://t.co/atEa4wkkMk

#PublicLands are shared by all, and it falls on all of us to help keep preserved & accessible for generations to come.

This is good news, and a good step for ensuring transparency for taxpayer-funded #PPP loans – but this fight is far from over. I will continue to work with my colleagues to hold @USTreasury and @SBAgov to this commitment to more disclosure. #IA03 https://t.co/zmZR3AYFBr

This week I hosted a roundtable with local vendors who have been greatly impacted by the cancellation of this year's Iowa State Fair. I support loosening restrictions on remaining PPP loans to help businesses still in need of support during this time. https://t.co/diZMApjlVO

On Sunday, we had dozens of folks join us for our first Virtual Strategy Session. I'm grateful for their commitment to volunteer for this grassroots campaign. Can I count on you to join us too? https://t.co/5odWZu8p7h

Without this year's fair, I will be focusing on how we can support our local economy to help offset the $110 million loss that estimates project will result from this cancellation. #IA03 https://t.co/EWZq3rVS6X

While I am saddened that Iowa won’t get the chance to show off one of its greatest attractions this year, I appreciate the state fair board for sending a clear message that caution is still crucial with the risks of #COVID19 still present in Iowa. #IA03 https://t.co/AUAz4xZECK

Iowa's educators have worked hard to find creative ways to keep our students engaged & adapted our state to distance learning while we've battled #COVID19. Proud to honor their dedication by naming them #IowanOfTheWeek #IA03 #TeacherAppreciationWeek https://t.co/sc2K5pz0JE

Any requirement – from an employer or @POTUS himself – for employees to keep coming to work needs to be accompanied by ironclad answers on what protections will be in place – including PPE, routine testing and inspections, & social distancing. (2/2) #IA03 https://t.co/d8h7cLGQcc

Iowa’s ag economy, including our packing plants, is critical to our state – it helps feed the rest of our country and the world. Keeping it running during #COVID19 means we need to first and foremost be keeping our workers safe and healthy. (1/3) https://t.co/d8h7cLGQcc

@RepFinkenauer, @DaveLoebsack, & I agree. Iowa's biofuel industry has already been operating on the thinnest of margins, & it is disappointing to see the @USDA leaving it out of recently-announced #COVID19 assistance programs. Read our statement: https://t.co/LKPmFQJfWZ https://t.co/IDEy4aI8m2

Elite Octane is also committed to charting a path to keep biofuels on the cutting edge of good environmental practices – and have set the standard for producers in Iowa by heavily reducing their carbon footprint!

Toured the Elite Octane in Atlantic this week – one of #IA03’s local ethanol plants and a producer of more than 140 million gallons of ethanol each year. https://t.co/xmTecOmjfu
