Democrat Ryan Melton is taking on MAGA-R Randy Feenstra and would appreciate your support. He is an amazing candidate who takes no PAC $ and doesn’t use DC talking points, just his own words. Check out his newsletter and sign up for it below. Also be sure to watch Ryan Melton on Iowa Press last year
This is Ryan Melton, Democrat running for the U.S. House in Iowa’s 4th Congressional District. During my 2024 campaign, I’ll send you a weekly email to keep you in the loop while not overwhelming your inbox. Typically, the newsletter will be a review from the week prior: Where we went, what issues of note were on the minds of those I met with, where we’ll be in the next week, etc.
Where we went and what people were concerned about:
Last week was pretty light due to the holidays. I jumped onto the Marshall Co. Democratic Party monthly Zoom, and was on the radio up in the Bismarck, N.D. area as I was invited on to speak regarding my opposition to the carbon capture pipelines. I’ll post the link to the episode I appeared on in the media section below.
Last week on the campaign trail, the hot button issues folks cared most about were:
The big news is that my primary opponent, Jay Brown, announced today that he’s dropping out of the race and is endorsing me. I’m grateful to Jay for the trust he has in me and for our friendship. I’m also grateful that I get the opportunity to continue to fight the good fight on your behalf. This news makes me the only Democratic Party candidate in this race to take on Randy Feenstra. Considering I reject corporate PAC money, don’t use D.C. talking points, and refuse to do the bidding of the big moneyed lobbyists that own this state, I’d be grateful if you could chip in and help with a donation.
Our schedule for this week:
I will be taking a break from the road next week to spend time with family over the holidays. I wish you all a restful, joyful holiday season. Also, thank you for all your support. I’ve now hit all 36 counties in person since I announced my second Congressional campaign on July 4th, 2023. I look forward to seeing you out there in 2024!
Recent press/social media posts of note:
My segment is during the 2nd half of the episode.
