Christina BohannanDemocraticI am running for Congress because I believe in government by the people, for the people. I believe in fighting for our Constitutional freedoms. And I believe that people who work hard should get a fair shot – not only to get by, but to get ahead. But right now, our political system is broken, and Iowans are paying the U.S. House members represent a single district and serve two-year terms. They introduce bills, control the federal budget, and vote on laws.
In the general election, the candidates who advanced face off and the winner takes office.
