Like most Iowans, I value elected officials who are independent-minded and who work for Iowans. Attorney General Tom Miller consistently demonstrates his independence from politics and politicians.
Miller's top priority has been protecting the public. He has a strong record of handling complex criminal prosecutions. His office also provides extensive assistance to victims of crime. One of Miller's top priorities is protecting consumers. He’s brought billions of dollars back to our state after taking on big tobacco and opioid manufacturers. He has helped hundreds of thousands of Iowans by reducing telemarketing crimes that cheat older Iowans. Miller has taken on big agricultural chemical companies and a huge pipeline project which cuts across farmland. His mission is to make sure farmers get a fair shake.
Iowans need an independent attorney general who works for everyday Iowans, not politicians. Sadly, Kim Reynolds does not value an independent attorney general; she wants an attorney general who will do whatever she tells them to do. And, as Brenna Bird has shown, she’s more interested in partisan politics than working for Iowans.
Attorney General Tom Miller has proved he works for us. Keep the Attorney General's Office independent. Vote for Tom Miller.
