Before I was a minister and a mom, I was a counselor for victims of sexual assault. So it's offensive when Zach Nunn repeatedly lies about my record. I will always put the safety of Iowa kids first.

$5. That’s what I’m asking you to chip in today to help us flip one of the most competitive House seats in the country. I know $5 may not sound like much compared to the millions national Republicans are preparing to spend in Iowa. But $5 helps us travel across IA-03, talk to voters in every corner of this district, and make sure people hear directly from our campaign before Republican attacks define this race. This is how we build a people-powered campaign that can win. So please chip in $

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
