What these politicians can’t fathom and don’t even realize exists, are the hardworking men and women in the trades who busted their tails with dreams of seeing their kids go to college, many first generation (‍♀️).

Today brings some real relief and will be celebrated by more folks than “insiders” or GOP politicians with trust funds, ever want to see or acknowledge.

They worked hard helping their kids get there, but in no way could they pay for it all so the loans were taken out and have been worked on being repaid, for some, decades.

There’s going to be a lot of talk today from GOP politicians went to college & never had student loans because well, TRUST FUNDS, about how forgiveness of 10K is really going to piss off hardworking Americans in the trades who didn’t go to four year college.

Two years ago today I married my very best friend @DanWasta in the middle of a damn pandemic. The incredible, inspirational & hopefully the next Governor of IA @DeidreDeJear officiated as we shared our 1st kiss to @taylorswift13 “Enchanted.” It was in fact, just that. https://t.co/RJzYTxL3GW

"[Abby] will never forget who she is. She'll never forget where she came from, and she will never forget who sent her there." Thank you, State Rep @JKonfrst, for your words of support. We are just ONE day out from Election Day here in Iowa—let's keep the energy up https://t.co/a6EfQ9FxC7

America's 1st female member of Congress—Jeannette Rankin—was sworn into office 105 years ago. In 2018, Iowa finally elected 2 women to the U.S. House: @CindyAxne and me. In 2022, we're going to make history again when I become the youngest woman EVER elected to the U.S. Senate.

Serious question for @ChuckGrassley: why are you so eager to get Twitter attention and boost your own ego that you ignored the security of the President of Ukraine? Take the damn photo down. https://t.co/CIGR7wYi3r

When I decide to run for Iowa House at the age of 24, there were only two Ds in their 20s serving. One was running for Congress and retiring—the other was @HallForIowa. He became a great mentor and a dear friend. So grateful for all he’s given to Iowa! https://t.co/Ft3y9itTzl

@ChuckGrassley is the architect who broke the filibuster and stole a SCOTUS seat to build a partisan anti-choice majority. But he can’t steal this one, and we can make sure he never does again.

@DeidreDeJear My name is Deidre DeJear, and I’m running to defeat Kim Reynolds and become the first Black woman Governor of any state. Can you join my campaign? https://t.co/HY5GHvBeDc

@ChuckGrassley went around the filibuster to build a Supreme Court that wants to overturn Roe v Wade. Don’t buy his griping about “tradition” when he says he must support the filibuster to block critical voting rights legislation this week.

While Governor Branstad was in office he *literally* rolled out the red carpet for China, became Ambassador, and now he’s cashing in. And politicians like his buddy @ChuckGrassley cheered him on. What a joke. This is exactly what’s wrong with our politics. https://t.co/hPzrSTnnVJ

In Congress, I led the effort to to permanently authorize the Children’s Health Insurance Program. I was tired of seeing our kids used as a political football and put an end to the games. That’s how I legislate and that’s what I’d promise in the United States Senate. https://t.co/Nypk7FWM8o

I don’t want to hear one more Senator who voted against the John Lewis Voting Rights Act pretend they care about freedom. The freedom to vote is the cornerstone of our democracy & @ChuckGrassley couldn’t be bothered to care. https://t.co/8zjpFSinnM

I met yesterday with @ACSCANIowa, which is fighting for increased federal cancer research funding. Preventing and fighting cancer is an important investment — I support increased cancer research both at NIH and by the Department of Defense. #IA01

EMA DISASTER RECOVERY CENTER OPEN: @FEMA has opened a new disaster recovery center in Marshalltown to help disaster-affected Iowans with applications for Individual Disaster Assistance. You can also apply online at https://t.co/1K1voanAbQ #IA01 https://t.co/vFEt2JDM3O

Today my office organized a briefing with @FEMA, @IowaHSEM & @CityofCRiowa to discuss tree removal options following the #derecho. This remains a major issue — and a major expense — for Iowans recovering from the storm and I’m committed to pushing FEMA to help. #IA01

10am CT The fight for women’s suffrage was full of ups and downs. Watch @IowaPBS’s story of how Iowans pushed the all-male legislature for a state constitutional amendment granting women the right to vote: https://t.co/aEYfTzhJXi #IA01 #suffrage100

You could play a direct role in ensuring FEMA’s assessment of #derecho damage is more accurate by reporting impacts to your home and property. Please fill out this state damage assessment form and help us make a strong case for federal aid. #IA01 https://t.co/PpzP1FL24c

This has been a disaster unlike any in memory, and I’ve been inspired at every turn by Iowans’ strength, determination and neighborliness in the face of overwhelming hardship. #IA01

I appreciate the president’s recognition of the severity of the damage and distress caused by the derecho storm, and his swift approval of the federal resources that families, farmers, local governments and utilities will need to overcome it. #IA01 https://t.co/plwChnNakU

Today’s expedited presidential major disaster declaration is an important step toward recovering from last week’s devastating storm and ensuring eastern Iowa families and communities are made whole. #IA01 https://t.co/VNeXn62Hc8

Too often, endometriosis is overlooked and misdiagnosed, leaving women without even a name for their pain. We’re doubling federal research funding to change that, and ensure women get the treatment they need. #IA01 #UpEndo https://t.co/GZKWFYHg9Z

When I shared my endo diagnosis, women responded with their own heartbreaking stories of chronic pain and missed opportunities. We’re fighting for more research and better treatments to give women control over their health and their lives. #IA01 #UpEndo https://t.co/0SasT8bFrj

Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women, but suffers from a lack of understanding and effective, accessible treatment options. That’s all too often the case when it comes to women’s health, but we’re fighting to change that. #IA01 #UpEndo https://t.co/BevozWwQJN

Today’s SCOTUS ruling is a long-overdue victory for #LGBTQ rights, ensuring employees cannot be fired because of their sexual orientation or gender identity. The fight for equality and justice isn’t over, but this is a huge step forward! #Pride #IA01 ️‍ https://t.co/c1HCa23Acz

Congratulations to Alburnett High School Senior Ella Thompson, the #IA01 winner of the 2020 Congressional Art Competition! Her ink-on-paper composition “Inkblot” will go on display later this year at the U.S. Capitol — help me say congratulations Ella! https://t.co/AwZHvqUgL6

Essential workers in Iowa and across the country are facing shortages of the protective gear they need in the fight against COVID-19. It's time for the president to use his authority to produce more live-saving PPE. #IA01 https://t.co/aj3Hwj50GK

It was great to see the progress of the @Dupaco Voices Building.
