As a fellow sixth-generation Iowan, I deeply connect with Zach Lahn’s vision. He sees Iowa’s culture not as something to mourn, but as a living inheritance we must actively defend and revitalize for our kids and grandkids. Through his Iowa First platform --- healthy kids, strong family farms, excellent education rooted in our values, and real economic opportunity --- he’s fighting to reverse brain drain so future generations can stay and continue our Iowa story. That’s why I’m proudly supporting him for Governor. #LahnForGovernor #IowaFirst

Brain drain has been a problem for decades, but Zach Lahn is correctly calling out a key driver: the left’s efforts to destroy our stories --- shaming our history, heritage, and Iowa’s agrarian roots. When young people are taught to be ashamed of where they come from, they leave. Lahn’s Iowa First agenda fights back with pride in our stories real solutions: strong education with parental rights, viable family farms, Making Iowa Healthy Again, and economic opportunity so our kids want to stay and build their lives here. Let’s choose pride over shame and results over excuses. #LahnForGovernor #IowaFirst

“United we stand, divided we fall.” The challenges we face won’t be solved by fighting each other - they’ll be solved by people willing to roll up their sleeves, have tough conversations, and get to work. There’s a lot more we can accomplish when we stop looking for enemies and start looking for solutions. United we are stronger. Divided we fall. Thank you Republican Party of Iowa for standing together to put #IowaFirst 🙌🏼

Spent the last week at the farm spending time with family, building our team, and taking some overdue meetings. My favorite meeting was with the county conservation board who came out to the farm to help plan our creek restoration project.💧 In the 1950s my Great Grandpa Alfred straightened our creek and Uncle John told me he always regretted it. Like many of these streams in Iowa, there has been significant erosion and stream bank degradation over the years - we’ve lost a lot of soil. A couple years ago, we decided it was time to take steps to protect the soil and water by restoring the first section of Buckeye Creek. Last year, a class from Drake University came out to take water samples, check for fish, and macro invertebrates so we could establish a “before” picture. We are remeandering the channel, raising the bed, slowing the flow, resloping the banks, and planting a native buffer with plants that Dr. Rosburg says were here pre-settlement. This fall, once permits are complete, we are starting reconstruction. Uncle John once caught a 1.5lb bullhead in here. Dad caught many fish in here as a kid, and Hudson caught his first fish in this creek in 2016, and Evelyn got a pheasant with me there last winter. 🎣 Looking forward to many more Lahns catching fish here.

Iowa can lead the nation on regenerative farming --- rebuilding soil health, supporting family farms, and Making Iowa Healthy Again. Key steps for Zach Lahn as Governor: • Boost incentives for cover crops, no-till & grazing • Leverage the new federal $700M Regenerative Pilot Program • Prioritize Iowa-grown regenerative food in schools • Cut red tape that favors Big Ag over independent producers This is real Iowa First policy. 🇺🇸 #IowaFirst #LahnForGovernor #RegenerativeAg

Zach Lahn is the right choice for Iowa Governor because he’s willing to put Iowa First -- including real Food Freedom for our family farms and families. We’ve made progress on raw milk and cottage foods, but barriers remain that hurt small producers. As Governor, Zach can expand responsible access (with testing & labeling), modernize cottage food laws, and fight Big Ag consolidation. Iowa farmers and consumers deserve more freedom, not more bureaucracy. #IowaFirst #FoodFreedom #LahnForGovernor

“They treat Iowa land like it’s a commodity instead of our inheritance.” “They treat us like numbers, not neighbors.” Republican nominee for governor, Zach Lahn, says investors are buying up Iowa farmland and pricing the next generation of farmers out of the market. “Our young people are leaving faster than 46 other states because they don’t see enough opportunity here.” “Wall Street hedge funds and foreign interests are buying and selling our land.” “Driving up costs so our kids are priced out of the market.” @ZachLahn

As a reminder.

Just know that nearly every other farm state Republican is just as bad as the Dem on these issues. It's hard to find more candidates like this.

Thank you @IowaLeoKelly for having me on your podcast! I enjoyed talking self governance, the threats of centralization, IOWA PRIMARIES, and medical freedom! m.youtube.com/watch?v=IsfTE8…
