Iowa’s recidivism rate is at a 10-year low, and @IowaCorrections’ educational advancement and Registered Apprenticeship program cuts that rate in half.
Great to meet with the team today in Washington to discuss our efforts to support reentry programs.

- From Iowa's first-in-the-nation caucuses to 99 county courthouses, our state ensures representation here runs through neighbors gathering in person, making their case, and deciding together. The founders bet on ordinary citizens to govern themselves, and Iowa keeps proving them
- Josh from Beaverdale asked how we're lowering health care costs. It comes back to more care closer to home, like the new River Hills clinic in Ottumwa, and a stronger workforce pipeline. That drove our $209 million investment for rural health care and $4 billion+ for health
00:00 - Iowa farmers spend years earning the ‘organic’ label on their crop. When foreign competitors slap that label on imports that didn't earn it, they undercut our farmers and shortchange the families who trust that organic means organic. We’re leading bipartisan legislation to make
- I've heard from too many Iowa families that the dream of owning a home is slipping out of reach, especially in our rural communities. That's why I fought to put rural housing reform front and center. This package cuts the red tape holding back new construction, modernizes the
- When Iowa transferred ownership of White Pole Road to Guthrie County, they kept the traffic but lost the help fixing the wear and tear. Local leaders built a plan to fix it. We secured $500,000 to help the community get it done.
- Hugh and Maxine Loudon gave 60 acres of their own land so small businesses in Page County have room to grow. No strings attached, just a belief in their community’s future. Team Nunn was honored to be at the groundbreaking last week, as Clarinda gets to work turning that gift
- Local leaders had a plan, Iowa Western had the expertise and the vision, and we helped bring home the funding to make it a reality. Nearly $1 million is heading to Atlantic and Clarinda to expand hands-on training and connect more Iowans directly to careers in the skilled trades
00:00 - The best ideas don’t start in Washington, they start with Iowa leaders willing to step up and lead. Great meeting with First Whitney Bank, the Cass County Sheriff’s Department, and county leaders to discuss our efforts to strengthen rural Iowa’s economy and public safety.
- Thank you @googlepubpolicy for endorsing our bipartisan AI Plan Act. As China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea invest heavily in AI, America needs a strategy to stay ahead of emerging threats, protect sensitive data, and safeguard our national and economic security.

That's why today we're endorsing seven bipartisan bills designed to fight scams and bad actors. 🧵(1/3)
- For too long, a kid in southwest Iowa who wanted to weld, wire a house, or run a job site had to leave home to learn how, and too many never came back. Here's how the $900,000 investment we announced today will help build the future of Made in America right here at home. ⬇️
00:00 - Greg asked what I’m delivering for rural Iowa, and we took their priorities to Washington with: ✅ Expanded access to broadband so farms, schools, businesses, and families aren't left behind ✅ Rural housing reforms to keep existing homes within reach and bring down housing
00:00 - When local leaders, the airport, DART, and private partners all pull in the same direction, here's the Iowa impact: a $26 million ATC upgrade, a new terminal, and a transformed facility for DART. Our job was to bring federal dollars, helping turn local priorities into a combined
