⛄ Holiday Relief, Iowa-Style

Every holiday season, Iowans load up the car, catch flights home to see loved ones, and grab gifts for friends and family — all while sharing a little “Iowa nice” along the way. And this year, those hard-earned dollars are stretching further.

Back up: This summer, I helped pass the Working Families Tax Cuts — the largest middle-class tax cut in American history — to put dollars back where it belongs: in your pocket.

When families were feeling the squeeze, and Main Street businesses were fighting to stay competitive, we stepped up to deliver real relief that lowers costs, makes life more affordable, and keeps Iowa’s economy strong.

Why it matters: When Iowans keep more of their paychecks, they invest it right back into their communities. That’s how you grow an economy – not through Washington mandates, but by trusting hardworking Americans to decide how to spend their own money.

But the best feedback doesn’t come from Washington — it comes from right here at home in Iowa. Here’s how the largest middle-class tax cut in our nation’s history is making a difference. ⬇️

Here’s what Iowans are saying:

💬 “This is pro-worker, plain and simple.”Erika, waitress

💬 “This was huge for small businesses like ours.”Johnnie, business owner

💬 “The tax cuts made a really big difference for our family.”Sarah, mom

💬 “The No Tax on Overtime provision is so important for first responders.” Keith, Wayne County Sheriff

💬 “It’s about time Washington stood up for Main Street businesses like mine.”John, barbershop owner

Bottom Line: I came to Congress to make life more affordable for Iowa families — from the grocery aisle to the gas pump — and I’ll keep fighting for policies that reward hard work, strengthen Main Street, and restore common sense. Because every Iowa family deserves a fair shot to get ahead.
