As Democrats we see all of us as connected, as a part of a community where we care about each other and act responsibly toward one another. Together we accomplish what cannot be done alone. Therefore, Democrats are determined to create hope and opportunity for every Iowan. We believe America, Iowa and our communities are stronger when we invest in people, reward hard work, and build a strong middle class. Our goal is rising prosperity for all not just concentrated wealth at the top.

Democrats believe that government works best when it works for the common good. Today, reforming government is essential to re-establish government by and for “we the people.” Washington, DC has become corrupted by Lobbyists, big money, the powerful and connected, and is ethically bankrupt. In Iowa Democrats work ethically and responsibly for the good of all.

Democrats’ priority is Iowa’s families. Iowans are hard workers and Governor Culver and fellow Democrats have worked hard for them. Governor Culver and Democratic leadership have resulted in legislative accomplishments that benefit all Iowans. Read what the Democratically led Iowa Legislatve body has done for all Iowans in these last two years.
