U.S. Rep. Ashley Hinson visited my farm recently to host a roundtable discussion with some of our strongest leaders in Iowa agriculture about the challenges facing the industry. Make no mistake, there is a lot to be done to right-size input costs for our farmers, but Hinson is committed to finding common-sense, conservative solutions to the biggest issues facing Iowa’s farmers.
This is why I have stepped up alongside leaders like Secretary Mike Naig, state Sen. Dan Zumbach, and Cordt Holub to lead Ashley’s Agriculture Advisory Council. We know she is putting in the work for us in D.C., so we are going to put in the work for her here to get her elected to the United States Senate this November!
