IOWA CITY: Today is the day. Go vote OLIVER in the special election @ your normal polling place. Anyone in Iowa City can vote, and if you voted in the primary in district C, vote again! Let’s show the real estate establishment in Iowa City that we think housing is a human right.

Unless you want an abortion, want to make a decent wage, or really anything else that has to do with baseline standards of living. ☺️

Efficient, Effective, and Small. That’s what government should be! Under my watch, state government will work FOR YOU! Not against you.

Today Iowa Republicans proposed to amend the constitution to ban gay marriage. Saying “In accordance with the laws of nature and nature’s God, the state of Iowa recognizes the definition of marriage to be the union between 1 human biological male and 1 human biological female.”


Iowa government said: bring back child labor!

A new Iowa bill would roll back child labor laws, allowing 14 to 17-year-olds to work in mining, meatpacking, demolition, operating guillotine shears, and other dangerous jobs. Under the business-backed bill, employers wouldn't be civilly liable if kids are injured or killed.

Police don’t prevent crime. They show up after it happens. Crime prevention starts with funding social programs and creating opportunity.
