Mariannette Miller-Meeks
Iowa’s 1st (IA - 01)
Updated: September 7, 2026
Overview
Iowans are paying the price for Mariannette Miller-Meeks selling us out. She is beholden to big corporations and special interests – and does their bidding.
SUMMARY:
Voters in the Quad Cities, Cedar Rapids, and Des Moines media markets need to see ads on broadcast TV, district-wide OTT/CTV, streaming, and digital platforms about how:
- On the very same day Miller-Meeks opposed capping the price of insulin at $35/month for seniors on Medicare, she received a campaign contribution from a PAC for the largest insulin manufacturer in the country. As health care and drug prices skyrocket, Miller-Meeks has taken over $680,000 from the drug and insurance industries – while giving them over $8 billion in special handouts. Worse, Miller-Meeks did not disclose renting a Washington home owned by two Pharma lobbyists – using over twenty five thousand of our taxpayer dollars to pay for it.
- Miller-Meeks took over $4 million from the corporate special interests — including the health insurance industry — while voting their way. Cutting health coverage for 110,000 Iowans. And increasing health care costs on all of us. In Iowa, health insurance premiums have increased 67% — all while Miller-Meeks voted to give billions in special tax breaks to insurance companies. Worse — Miller-Meeks even wrote a plan that allowed insurance companies to discriminate against people with pre-existing conditions like diabetes and cancer.
Voters in the Quad Cities, Cedar Rapids, and Des Moines media markets need to see ads on broadcast TV, district-wide OTT/CTV, streaming, and digital platforms about how:
- Miller-Meeks took over $4 million from the corporate special interests – including corporate Ag monopolies — and voted their way. Miller-Meeks pushed to make it easier to pollute our water – while we pay the price. Now, even though Iowa has the second highest cancer rates in the country — Miller-Meeks voted to slash funding for cancer research. Miller-Meeks also voted for the largest gutting of Medicaid in history – kicking Iowans off their health care and jacking up the cost of health care on all of us, even for victims of cancer.
Additional Resources
- It is important for voters to hear from real, everyday Iowans – families struggling with the high cost of health care, prescription drugs, and insulin — as well as victims and families suffering from cancer.
