Wishing a happy birthday to my good friend Lt. Gov. Adam Gregg Adam Gregg!

Congratulations Lt. Gov. Adam Gregg. We appreciate all that you and Gov. Kim Reynolds are doing to keep rural Iowa thriving and strong!

A day off from school means extra help for #plant24 at the farm! 🚜

We love this time of year!

Farmers across Iowa are busy planting the corn and soybeans that will ultimately power our state and nation: in livestock feed, food, renewable fuel, and a variety of household products that we all use daily.

Great time touring the Purina pet food facility in Clinton this afternoon. Their recent $156M expansion created 96 new jobs, bringing their workforce to nearly 600 ppl.

This state-of-the-art plant produces a wide variety of pet products for our furry friends!

This morning I had the opportunity to tour Iowa Premium in Tama. Iowa’s beef producers are an important part of our economy and the #IowaAg community.

Not the way we wanted it to end, but a great season from Iowa Women's Basketball! You made the entire State of Iowa proud today! #GoHawks

This morning I stoped by Iowa Cover Crop in Greene County to deliver them a Conservation Leader Award for their work to expand and accelerate conservation across Iowa. We talked about Iowa’s leadership in conservation and cover crop adoption, up to nearly 4M acres today! #IowaAg

Today I was honored to attend the dedication and groundbreaking for the Vet Diagnostic Lab @ ISU. The VDL is an incredibly important to Iowa State University, our FAD efforts and Iowa’s livestock producers. Thanks to Gov. Kim Reynolds, #ialegis , and #IowaAg for investing in this critical asset!

Congrats Iowa Women's Basketball! What a performance to get to the Final Four! 🐤
