🔒 Iowa Secure. America Strong.

As a 20-year combat veteran and Colonel in the Air Force, I understand the urgent need to keep America safe. National security isn’t just a talking point—it’s a mission.

Iowa families deserve safety, security, and the peace of mind that comes with knowing their government is working to protect them. That’s why in the first 100 days of the 119th Congress, we’ve delivered results for our community that strengthen both our national defense and our Iowa way of life.

Here are just a few of the things we’ve accomplished to keep Iowa safe and America secure:

✅ Leading on key measures to secure the southern border, remove migrant criminals, and keep deadly fentanyl out of our communities

✅ Working across the aisle to stop foreign adversaries from purchasing American farmland

✅ Strengthening cyber defenses by introducing key legislation to fortify Iowa’s water systems and financial systems against cyber and ransomware attacks

✅ Passing five bills through the Financial Services Committee to crack down on fentanyl trafficking and combat illicit terrorist financing

✅ Maximizing pressure on Iran by imposing the toughest sanctions to prevent future acts of terrorism

Bottom Line: National security is critical to the safety of Iowa families. A secure America means a stronger, more resilient Iowa.
