Run Gen Z @RunGenZ

Run Gen Z is proud to endorse Joe Mitchell for Congress in Iowa's 2nd District. Joe founded Run Gen Z in 2021 with a simple message: "If I can do it, so can you." He proved it at 20 years old when he was elected to the Iowa House, and he's been proving it ever since, serving in the Trump administration at HUD and FHFA and building workforce housing in rural Iowa. Now it's Iowa's turn to send him to Washington. Joe for IA-2. 🇺🇸

Join me at AmericaFest this weekend for our Gen Z breakout panel featuring @tpaction, @uscollegegop, and @RunGenZ leaders:

🇺🇸 🟣 Ladies Who Lead E(xx)change 🟣 🇺🇸 Run Gen Z is excited to host the Ladies Who Lead E(xx)change on January 15th at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium in Clearwater Beach, Florida. We are looking forward to welcoming local community members, college students, mothers and daughters, elected women, and emerging candidates at this event, the day before Run Gen Z's sixth annual candidate training conference, the One Generation Summit. Please join us! Register Here: events.theonegen.org/lwl --- The Ladies Who Lead E(xx)change is a one-day gathering designed to unite women of all ages to reflect on leadership, faith, values, and what it means to lead as a woman in today’s world. The event features inspiring conversations, dynamic panels, intentional networking, and opportunities to build relationships and a renewed sense of purpose. In the early 1900s, brave women and men stood up and declared that women deserved the right to vote. Suffragists wore white to symbolize the purity and determination of their movement, and their courage changed the course of American history. Like the suffragists before them, women must continue raising their voices in the face of those who would diminish or dismiss them. Run Gen Z will host one of the largest conservative women’s events in Florida. In recognition of the suffragists who fought for these rights, attendees will dress in all white. More than three hundred women dressed in white will send a powerful message of unity and imagery.

🇺🇸 AMFEST 2025 🇺🇸 Run Gen Z is excited to join @tpaction at AmFest 2025! Our executive director, @ATPennings, and deputy director, Macon Boane, will be on a breakout panel discussing how 2026 is going to be a pivotal year for the country. Join us at AmFest!
