Let’s cut to the chase: over 1,000,000 Americans lost their jobs in 2025. Before you even think about blaming President Biden, understand this—you and your “one big beautiful bill” are responsible. The policies you championed have caused real harm to real people. Families are losing their livelihood

Oppose current version of SF 2201- parent perspective

I am writing to you as an Iowa parent to share my concerns about SF 2201 and what it means for my child’s education. On paper, a 1.75% increase in school funding may sound reasonable.

From a verified voter in Ankeny, IA

I am opposed to the SAVE act. We already have voter ID rules. Many people do not have or have lost essential documents or can't afford a passport. Add itionally, many women changed their name when they got married, so names don't match. This is voter suppression and a poll tax to be able to vote

Unredacted victim names, info and naked pics. Does this cross a line yet?

The release of the Epstein files containing unredacted names, birthdays, personal information, and nude images of victims is an absolute disgrace. Let’s be blunt: releasing naked images of victims—some of them minors—is re-distribution of sexual abuse. At best, it is a catastrophic violation of vic
