I am weary of the constant chaos and the negative tone that has come to dominate our political conversations. Neither has led to effective governance, and both have left many constituents feeling frustrated and unheard.

With the election primaries just weeks away, now is the time to thoughtfully consider the candidates in both parties. We have an opportunity–and a responsibility–to choose a new direction.

In recent months, our current leadership has struggled to produce meaningful results, and there has been little accountability within the GOP regarding Donald Trump’s influence. It’s clear that a change is needed.

What we need is someone with fresh ideas, renewed energy, and a commitment to restoring a sense of optimism and purpose in public service. Here in Iowa’s 4th District, we have that person in Ashley WolfTornabane, a candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives.

Ashley is running a true grassroots campaign, driven by a genuine desire to represent the people of this district. She has spent countless hours traveling across counties, meeting with voters, and listening to their concerns. Her work ethic and accessibility set her apart.

What stands out most is Ashley’s sincerity and positive vision. She brings a refreshing perspective to a political landscape that too often feels stagnant and divisive. I am confident that, if elected, she will remain grounded, independent, and fully committed to advocating for Iowans–not becoming another entrenched Washington insider.

Ashley WolfTornabane represents a much-needed breath of fresh air. I encourage you to learn more about her campaign and consider supporting her in the primary–and again in November.
