David Muhlbauer is an Iowa native, father, and farmer, running to expand the Democrats' Senate majority and champion progress for working families. He needs your help to do it, but if you don't want to receive our communications you can unsubscribe here.
John, I'm Dave Muhlbauer. I'm a farmer in Iowa who raises hogs and cattle, corn, beans, and alfalfa, and I'm running for U.S. Senate. Let me tell you why:
Republican Senator Chuck Grassley has been in office for over 40 years. And throughout Grassley's four decades in office, Iowans have endured extreme economic hardship and witnessed generational disinvestment in our communities.
You don't have to look hard for proof: Health care is inaccessible and expensive, climate change-related disasters, like last year's derecho, have become more frequent, and the minimum wage is wholly insufficient for a working family.
Through these periods of crisis and stagnation, Iowans have been holding tough and waiting for politicians to deliver the support we've desperately needed. Grassley has all but ensured that support never arrived.
John, I'm done waiting.
Please take a few minutes to watch my announcement video, and if you like what you hear, stick around and help me flip this battleground Senate seat.
This isn't just about what Chuck Grassley hasn't done. This is about my personal commitment to Iowa that spans over five generations.
I live in Manning, Iowa with my wife, Linda, and our three kids Chas, Ava, and Roslyn. So when I say we need to invest in midwestern communities and create opportunity for our kids: I mean it because it's personal.
I operate our family farm where we grow corn, beans, and alfalfa and raise hogs and cattle. As a fifth-generation farming family, we know the destruction of climate change first hand. That's why I'm committed to reversing climate change and preserving our land for our kids' kids.
I'm also deeply indebted to our communities. After all, without the help of our neighbors, family, and friends, countless harvests would've been lost. I'm in this race for working families because they've always had my back -- through thick and thin.
But there's plenty of time to get to know one another -- for now, watch my announcement video and let me know if you're in this fight with me.
I hope you'll join us, there's a lot of work to do and we can't win power for working people without your help.
Thanks,
Dave Muhlbauer
