We ended up losing what little money that we had coming in to address the cancer crisis here in Iowa.

Thirty four million dollars.

The cancer crisis has certainly touched my life deeply and personally.

I lost my grandmother to pancreatic cancer.

My father, because of exposure to Agent Orange, has dealt with several bouts of cancer.

And nearly the day that I launched this campaign, my sister got diagnosed with stage two breast cancer, has private insurance.

And the private insurance basically said, you don't have enough cancer.

If you don't have stage three or stage four, we won't cover the PET scan to see if the cancer spread to other parts of your body.

And so first and foremost, we

We need to return the funding that we lost.

We also need to make sure that we've got guardrails on insurance companies because doctors should be citing care, not insurance companies.

And then we have to address the root cause of this cancer crisis, which is the water quality crisis.

And we've got a nitrate level crisis and we need to put more infrastructure to be able to address that.

We need more incentives to our farmers.

This is to prevent them from incentivize them from putting down fertilizer in the winter months to incentivize them to put down cover crops.

Land barriers, like a lot of states, mandate.

We certainly don't want to put any more financial burden in onus because we're at risk of, I mean, we're really in a farmageddon here.

But we've got to address this nitrate level issue that we've got with our water quality because it is absolutely leading to our cancer rates.

And this is what I want to fight for in the U.S.

Senate.
