I was born with spina bifida, had 21 surgeries by age 12, and went on to win two Paralympic gold medals. When I ran for office in Iowa, I didn’t expect it to be easy. I pushed up hills and crawled up stairs to win by 6 votes. I’m still pushing—for you.

Football gave me so much, I could probably barely complete the long list of lessons, wisdom, growth, opportunities and enriching experiences I gained from playing. And yet, perhaps one of football's most impactful gifts to me was the very difficult way my career ended.

91.3% of Americans don't live in Texas. But they still, via Congress, approved billions of dollars of federal aid to Texas after Hurricane Harvey.
87% of American adults don’t have student loans. They shouldn’t have to pay off yours.

Not enough is said about the expert professional staff on the #J6Committee. They are patriots. Their work has to be perfect. They probably hardly sleep. I really don’t know how they find the time to practice their synchronized staffing moves. Impeccable timing:
