It’s Official: Bohannan Is In

Christina Bohannan

I want you to hear it directly from me:

I’m running for Congress against Republican Mariannette Miller-Meeks. In a moment I’ll ask you to endorse my campaign, but first I want to tell you why I’m running for Congress:

When I think about why I want to represent Iowa’s 1st district, I think of my dad. Dad worked construction – and I can’t think of anyone who worked harder. But when my dad got sick, we almost lost everything, staying afloat thanks to Social Security and Medicare benefits.

My dad isn’t alone. The Iowans I know value hard work, but they’re struggling under the weight of rising health care costs and lower pay. I’m running because Iowans like my dad deserve dignity.

My opponent, Republican Mariannette Miller-Meeks, puts her extremist agenda above everyday Iowans. She blames rising health care costs on seniors using their hard-earned Medicare benefits, she supports a national abortion ban with no exceptions, and she stands with the big pharmaceutical companies over Iowa’s working families who are struggling to afford drugs. That’s unacceptable.

In 2022, we came just short of what we needed to win this race, but my dad didn’t raise me to back down – not when our communities are at stake.

If you’re fed up with Washington politicians who shut us down, count us out, and leave us behind, join us. I know the struggle because I’ve lived it. I will be your voice. I will be your champion. Always.

If you’re ready to endorse this campaign and join this movement, please sign here. There’s strength in numbers, and your support early in this campaign will help build our momentum.

Yours in the fight,
Christina Bohannan
