Dear Friend,
Since coming into office, I have set out to change the culture of Washington. I have been working to put Iowans first and make sure Members of Congress are working for you, the people we are chosen to represent, not special interests.
Starting in 2007, I worked to pass the largest ethics reform package since Watergate. But I haven't stopped there. I have also pushed to cut member's pay, which hasn't been cut in over 80 years, end the revolving door between lobbyists and Congress, get budgets passed on time, and have fought to hold members of Congress accountable for actually doing what they were sent to Washington to do.
This is also why I recently unveiled a package of bills that I have either written or helped introduce to restore the American people's faith in their government. It's called the "Holding Congress Accountable" plan. I recorded a quick video about it.
Click here if you want to learn more about the specific bills included in my "Holding Congress Accountable" plan.
The American people deserve better. It's time for Congress to show it is serious about making good choices for the country. It's time Congress is held accountable and does what's right so the American people can have trust in the work that their government is doing.Sincerely,
Dave LoebsackIowa's Second District
