With the Iowa legislative session over, we can at least celebrate the bad bills that didn’t pass. Like giving pesticide manufacturers immunity if sued for causing cancer. What are you celebrating?
SIGN THE PETITION: Every Iowan deserves the right to make their own healthcare decisions without interference from politicians. It’s time to protect our right to reproductive freedom and abortion in the Iowa Constitution. Add your name: bit.ly/3VXoeOV
Great reporting on this public-private partnership to enrich pesticide corporations & elect politicians, all while preventing sickened Iowa farmers from receiving justice. Gotta kill this bill. Bayer/Monsanto has poured money into Iowa politics for years iowastartingline.com/2024/04/08/bay…
IA Senate GOP just passed SF2412 giving immunity to pesticide manufacturers if sued for causing cancer. The bill was written by Bayer, maker of Roundup (linked to lymphoma). IA would be the 1st to give immunity to pesticide makers. IA has the nation’s 2nd highest cancer rate.
The IA GOP continues to advance a bill (HSB 737) that gives legal protections to pesticide companies accused of causing cancer. This comes while Iowa battles the fasting rising cancer rates in the US. Suspicious? If you follow the $$$, guess where it goes.
Iowa GOP lawmakers just advanced a constitutional amendment to require a two-thirds supermajority vote to ever increase corporate taxes. I don’t think we need to stack the deck even more favorably for CEOs and shareholders who are already enjoying historic wealth.
Still hot off the press, the Iowa GOP’s massive education bill is being rushed through the Iowa House this evening (unread by most) with debate limited to 6:30pm so that legislators can get to Drake and Iowa State basketball games. 2 bball games vs a half million kids.
With wonderful support from my family, I’m running for reelection to the Iowa House. It’s been an honor to be in on the ground floor of what I believe will be Iowa’s comeback. Join me in the movement to rebalance the statehouse (with Democrats). austinbaeth.com
What role do you believe religion should have when writing state laws?
Election law should not be based on conspiracy theory.
It’s long overdue, but we’re finally raising teacher pay! Thanks to all the amazing teachers out there, we are grateful for everything you do for Iowa’s kids! #ialegis
The Iowa GOP is again making it even harder to vote predicated on the debunked fears of organized voter fraud. These laws are the fraud.
Today, the Iowa GOP is making it harder for Iowans to vote. If this bill had been put into law before the last election, the votes of 17,000 Iowans would not have been counted. Here's what it does: 1️⃣Shortens the time to return absentee ballots 2️⃣Bans ballot drop boxes. #ialegis
The right-wing attack on our educators for allegedly indoctrinating our children should cease after Iowa House Republicans’ mandate to show an anti-abortion video to Iowa’s 7-12th graders.
Do you think arming teachers makes schools more or less safe?
Do you think arming teachers makes schools more or less safe?
Iowa Senate Republicans are trying to give legal immunity to pesticide makers for failing to warn of health risks (SF 2392) at a time when Iowa has the fastest rising cancer rate in the nation due to unclear causes. Suspicious or just bad optics?
Half of IA workers go without a retirement account, often because their employer doesn’t offer one. Today I introduced IA HouseDems’ bill for a state-facilitated retirement savings program (Auto-IRA), giving more IA workers the opportunity to invest for their golden years
There's a lot more we can do to lower costs and raise wages for Iowans. I'm proud of the plan put forward by @iowahousedems.
There's a lot more we can do to lower costs and raise wages for Iowans. I'm proud of the plan put forward by @iowahousedems.
Iowans expect our public education to be fully funded and the best in the country. Today, the IA House GOP chose to continue their decade-long trend of defunding our schools instead. We should do better and actually invest in Iowa’s future.
SPEAK OUT AGAINST CUTS TO AEAS: A public hearing on the cuts to Iowa’s AEAs has been set for Wednesday, February 21st at 5 PM at the State Capitol. Speak up now by leaving your comments online and registering “CON” at: bit.ly/3T7JO1G. #IaLegis

@AustinBaeth Fund public schools and end vouchers + legalize marijuna + strip IA AG of new election related powers
Support our public schools with better teacher salaries and resources. Assure women can make their own health choices. Ban assault weapons. Improve mental health services. Repeal book ban.
The 2024 Legislative Session starts tomorrow. What’s your message you’d like me to share or shout at the Capitol?
@AustinBaeth Save Iowa's AEAs, protect abortion access, fully fund public schools, end the marginalization of LGBTQ students, prevent further erosion of our voting rights, and for the love of all that's holy, pass sensible, responsible gun control.
@AustinBaeth Feed the hungry, and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon. - Isaiah 58: 10-11.
@AustinBaeth What Raymond Baker said. Thank you for asking.
Please allow federal dollars to feed children.
The 2024 Legislative Session starts tomorrow. What’s your message you’d like me to share or shout at the Capitol?
@AustinBaeth To the Republicans in power, stop purposely trying to hollow out our state by chasing a certain kind of voter away with their extremism and hatred. Challenge us straight up and honestly on relevant policy that actually helps Iowans instead.
@AustinBaeth What Raymond Baker said. And require a state audit of the $$ flow of the ESA vouchers from the state fund, to Odyssey, to the schools bank accounts.
@AustinBaeth Strengthening public schools in Iowa by better teacher pay, find a way (if possible) to defund school voucher program. Stricter gun control(no permit less carry), ban assault weapons , no guns on school property (not in truck beds). Revive SNAP benefits. Good luck
@RayBake @AustinBaeth All the above! I would also add environmental/water/land quality improvements
@AustinBaeth Throw out A Handmaid Tale as a template for passing laws that take away women's rights to healthcare. Give women back bodily autonomy. Voting rights, education, senior citizens are also important.
It was an honor to meet with @SenDuckworth I am genuinely appreciative of her support and advocacy on disability issues like improving public transport accessibility and improved airline travel. We discussed policies to increase employment for individuals with disabilities
@AustinBaeth Well said. With ZERO instances of anything happening why did they need to do anything? Is it illegal in Iowa for an alligator to drive a Harley in church? Given it has happened equally as many times as what they claim they are trying to legislate against they better get to work.
I cannot tell you how terrifying this is. This cannot and should not be ignored.
Texas AG Ken Paxton has declared all forms of gender-affirming care for trans youth child abuse under existing law, threatening parents and doctors with prosecution and forcing all mandated reporters of child abuse to report trans kids to state agencies. dallasnews.com/news/politics/…
