7th generation Iowan | Attorney | Advocate
Democrat running to take back Iowa's 1st Congressional District
Pinned
They say you need a good elevator pitch to run for office.

Well, here's mine. My name is Taylor Wettach, and I'm a 7th-generation Iowan. I quit my job as a lawyer after my law firm caved to Trump. Now, I'm running for Congress to flip Iowa's 1st and take back the House.
Iowans, please stay warm, stay safe, and take it slow on the roads. And a huge thank you to our snowplow operators and truck drivers working long hours to keep our communities moving.

Big thanks to everyone who came out to share their time with us despite the snow.

Folks are opening up about the concerns they’re facing right now, and we’re listening. Every conversation helps us better connect with our communities, and we’re grateful for the support we’re seeing across #IA01.

When you ask people what they care about, they tell you.

We spent the night talking with Iowans about democracy, healthcare, and affordability, and many other key issues. Real conversations. Real concerns.

Thank you to Anna and Ava from @thedailyiowan.bsky.social for talking to us about our campaign and the conversations we’ve been having with folks across this district.

One of the reasons why we started this campaign was to raise the voices of the next generation of Iowans.

Unbelievable. Far-right politicians refuse to help everyday folks crushed by skyrocketing health care costs, yet they happily give more tax breaks to the billionaire class.

It’s time we treat health care as a human right – not a privilege for those who can afford it.

We’ve been traveling across the district, listening to and learning from farmers and members of our rural communities.

One thing we’ve been hearing is NO MORE CHAOTIC TARIFFS. We want competitive and stable markets so rural Iowa can grow and thrive.

Last week I released my Rural Revival Plan – because rural Iowa deserves a future as strong as the people who built it. For too long, corporate greed and political neglect have put rural Iowa on the ropes. 

My Rural Revival Plan is about changing that.

We took a break from campaign grind this afternoon to decorate our tree! Megan and I are excited to be celebrating our first #Christmas as a married couple this year.

Check out our Hawkeye tree and find out what our favorite Christmas traditions are!

I believe in a future where rural Iowa isn’t an afterthought.

Instead of offering band-aid fixes, I released my Rural Revival plan that empowers farmers with strong markets, local meat processing, & investments in domestic fertilizer manufacturing & the bio-economy, to name a few.

Trump and Rollins want to act like a firefighters when they started this firestorm.

Instead of reckless trade wars and cutting billions in USDA funds, that Miller-Meeks supported, we need leaders who will invest in our farmers and rural communities to grow and thrive.

We have felt inspired speaking with and learning from farmers and community members across Iowa’s First District since the launch of this campaign. With the valuable perspectives we’ve gained, we released a Rural Revival plan last week.

Grateful for everyone who came out in the freezing cold to spend the afternoon talking and sharing your time with us.

We are overwhelmed with the energy and responses we’ve been getting from folks all across the district, and we are committed to working with you all to fight for #Iowa.

We had a wonderful evening at the Muscatine Symphony Orchestra Christmas concert, featuring the Muscatine Civic Chorale!

Special props to my dad, who was a soloist for Handel’s Messiah- he makes a son proud!

I believe in a future where rural Iowa is a place of opportunity, innovation, and pride. A place where young people want to stay and raise families. A place where community is strong, small businesses are growing, farms are thriving, and every town has a real future.

I grew up hearing stories about my great-grandpa Pete Wettach’s work to help keep farm families afloat during the Great Depression as a Farm Security Administration county supervisor.
