Hinson supports bill to ‘protect’ women’s sports

The 119th Congress is in full swing, and, with my support, the House passed legislation to protect the integrity of women's sports, prevent violence against women from illegal aliens, improve disaster preparedness and increase transparency and accountability in government.

This week, I had the privilege to sign my Oath of Office for the 119th Congress. Serving as your representative in Congress is an honor and responsibility I take to heart every day.

In this job, I’m reminded daily of the values that make Iowa so special — hard work, family and resilience. These are the values I carry with me as I advocate for our farmers, small businesses and families.

Whether it’s pushing for economic growth, holding government accountable or protecting our way of life, I’m committed to delivering results that matter to you.

As we close out our second week of the 119th Congress — and are just three days away from President Trump returning to the White House—I know the best is yet to come for Iowa

While traveling on my 22-County Tour Friday, I stopped at Garnavillo Mini Mart and had the pleasure of meeting with the proud owners, Didier and Anne Vanderbiest.

Originally from Belgium, the couple moved to the U.S. after Didier visited Iowa — and became convinced that Iowa was the best place to live and start a business. They now provide rural Iowans with everyday staples, convenience items, and authentic Belgian waffles at the mini mart, in addition to raising high-quality Belgian Blue cattle.

I enjoyed hearing about this family’s own American dream.

While touring through Winneshiek County, I had the opportunity to tour the expansion and improvement projects underway at WinnMed in Decorah.

The health and safety of my constituents will always be a top priority, and I’m grateful for the top-notch care our healthcare professionals deliver to rural Iowans close to home.

I met with the Oelwein Volunteer Fire Department to hear more about what they’re seeing on the ground in Fayette County. I will always fight to ensure our rural communities have the resources they need to stay safe.

There is no better time to highlight the courage of first responders, and I thank those who regularly put themselves in harm's way to protect our communities — in Iowa and across the country.

Ziegler CAT has been a trusted leader in providing quality service and equipment to the construction and agriculture industries for over a century. Thank you to the team for giving me a tour of your facility. I’m looking forward to visiting Postville again once the new Ziegler CAT facility is complete.
