On the road again

John, We've been out on the road for the past couple of weeks, hitting the trail from river to river talking to Iowans about what matters most to them. I've heard so many eye-opening stories -- nurses talking about the lack of resources in hospitals and how it harms their patients, farmers con…

You know where Dave stands, but here's something you might not know

We've been emailing you a lot about Dave this month, John. By now, you know about his commitment to working folks, farmers, and Iowans who've been left behind by Republicans and corporate Democrats. You know what Dave will fight for in the Senate -- rebuilding our infrastructure, affordable he…

This is what I'm all about, John

John, A lot of folks in this race are gonna tell you stories with meticulously calibrated talking points to win your vote. But I'm gonna give it to you straight -- what sets me apart from other candidates in this race is that I'm a fifth-generation farmer and an old-school labor Democrat. I…

Our democracy is in trouble, John

John, We need to have an honest discussion about the state of voting rights in this country. In June, Senate Republicans voted to block debate on the For the People Act, effectively sinking crucial legislation that would have expanded voter protections and strengthened our democracy. For ye…

You're making a difference, John

Give yourselves a round of applause, John. Thanks to you, we crushed our fundraising targets for the end of July -- giving Dave Muhlbauer a leg up on the competition and sending a clear message to Chuck Grassley and Mitch McConnell that Dave is here to stay. Your contributions, no matter how b…

A note from the road

Honk honk! Howdy John! We're one our way back from the first few stops of our 99 County Tour -- and I couldn't be more excited to be reporting back from the back of our huge tour truck. We started out in my home county of Crawford, stopped in Carroll County for a radio interview, and I met …

Tonight

John, This month, Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans posted record numbers when it came to fundraising for the midterms. This year alone, they've raised over $51.2 million -- allowing them to spend more this month on digital list building than they spent in the entirety of 2020. Now we've …

We're not asking for a lot

John, We'll keep this brief. We're just $14,049 short of our end-of-month goal. Will you show your support for Dave Muhlbauer by chipping in just $5 tonight? DONATE -- [link removed] While Iowan families suffered economic hardship, and had to endure natural disasters like last year's de…

Yesterday

We said from the beginning that this was going to be a competitive race, John. Dave Muhlbauer is fighting for a battleground Senate seat against an 87-year old incumbent who has been in office for 4 decades. It was only a matter of time before another candidate threw their hat into the ring. Y…

We can't give you credit on this one, Chuck

John, If there's one thing Chuck Grassley is great at doing, it's taking credit for things he didn't accomplish. Last week, the Biden administration announced that it will target anti-competitive business practices in the agriculture industry, the first pro-small farmer commitment our governme…

It's hot, dry, and dangerous out there, John

John, Here's the bottom line: right now, extreme weather is becoming a part of our daily lives. Climate change is threatening to change everything about the way we live -- and we're running out of time to do something about it. Here in Iowa, we've had to deal with a severe drought and devastat…

Re: Getting shovels in the dirt

John, Did you get Dave's last message? Our infrastructure is what holds our communities together. From bridges to roads to our water supply, it's all part of what keeps us strong. That's why Dave Muhlbauer is supporting President Biden's infrastructure plans, including the INVEST in America…

Getting shovels in the dirt

John, For years now, Iowa's roads and bridges have continued to crumble -- posing a major threat to our communities, our safety, and our livelihoods. That's why I was glad to hear that the House just passed the INVEST in America Act, which will deliver billions in much-needed funds to repair o…

Couldn’t have done it without you

John, I can't thank you enough. Whether folks chipped in $5, $10, or $20 -- each donation helped us make it through our first end-of-quarter fundraising cycle and allowed us to meet the ambitious target we set. This is a big deal, because it means we can send a strong message to Chuck Grass…

Let’s go kick some ass

John, Our first FEC deadline is approaching fast, and we're falling short of where we need to be for our end-of-quarter fundraising goals. We're sending our FEC report straight to Mitch McConnell, to show him that we have the support and momentum to flip Chuck Grassley's Senate seat next year.…

This is bull...

John, As a farmer, I know a thing or two about manure. And what Chuck Grassley and Mitch McConnell are doing right now in the Senate is just that -- bullcrap. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is dead-set on blocking legislation that would help working folks. Just look at his opposition t…

A quick note from the road

Hey John, Dave Muhlbauer here. Since launching my Senate campaign a few weeks ago, I've been on the road talking directly to Iowan families about what matters most to them. From Woodbury County to Clinton County, I kept hearing the same thing from Iowa families -- we need new leadership in …

We can expand the Democratic majority right here

John, In 2020, Democrats took back enough seats to control the legislative agenda of the Senate -- but we didn't win enough to secure the progress that so many working people need. What gets put on hold because of this? A federal minimum wage increase, health care reform, and real action to re…
