They don't want someone in the US Senate that's going up there just to make herself more wealthy. In a state with a cancer crisis and a healthcare crisis, she has voted to pull 110 ,000 Iowans off of their healthcare, 119 ,000 Iowans seeing their healthcare premiums double or triple, quoted for cuts to healthcare, food assistance, and the Social Security Administration just to give tax breaks to billionaires. 5 times voted in favor of the tariffs, 7 times voted in favor of the war. No, Iowans have had enough that once someone is going to go up there and actually fight for them and we can win this thing.
