In the words of Michael Scott, “the dictionary defines superlative as of the highest kind, quality, or order; surpassing all else or others; supreme.” There is one Republican candidate in Senate District 42 who meets this definition.
Colman Silbernagel is 100 percent pro-life from conception to natural death. He will fight for legislation that not only calls for an end to abortion but improves the options available to assist women facing unplanned pregnancies.
Colman is a decorated combat veteran of the U.S. Army. His military experience proves immense leadership capability, and a unique understanding of veteran’s issues. Colman will work to advance legislation that improves health care options for veterans of the armed forces.

Colman is a staunch defender of the Second Amendment, and is supportive of the Freedom Amendment. He will oppose legislation that seeks to restrict Second Amendment rights.
Colman is a believer in school choice, and supports legislation that allows the money to follow the student whether they attend public or private school. Colman believes that parents have the fundamental right to choose how they educate their families and that parents should have the ability to see what their children are being taught.
Colman grew up on a dairy farm. He understands agriculture’s importance to our state.
I urge Republicans in Iowa Senate District 42 to vote for Colman Silbernagel, the candidate who is of the highest kind, quality, and order.
