I’m not exactly the prototypical candidate for governor in Iowa: I’m also
the State Auditor, a skateboarder, a bowhunter, and — if you can believe
it in 2026 — still the only statewide elected official who openly supports
legalizing weed.

There are plenty of reasons why Iowa should legalize weed ASAP, but if
you’re thinking, say less Rob, where do I sign? — [ [link removed] ]Then feel free to add
your name to my petition calling on the Hawkeye State to finally legalize
weed.

Legalize Weed in Iowa!

I’ve been calling on Iowa to legalize weed for years now, but the partisan
insiders who’ve had complete control of our state government for the last
decade have been holding us back.

Here are three big reasons why Iowa should legalize weed, and do it soon:

1) Iowa is missing out on tens of millions of dollars in tax revenue.
Neighboring states that have legal weed are putting the tax revenue toward
things like public safety, education, and improving government services.

2) Legalizing weed would create jobs right here in Iowa. At a time when
Iowa’s economy is struggling, legalizing adult-use cannabis is estimated
to create around 7,000 jobs.

3) It’s morally the right thing to do. Nobody should be incarcerated for
smoking weed, and it’s long overdue that we work to right some of
history’s wrongs.

[ [link removed] ]I think it’s high time we legalize weed here in Iowa, and the benefits
would be substantial and long-lasting. If you agree with me, please add
your name to my petition today!

Legalize Weed in Iowa!

Thanks!
