Joni Ernst Endorsed By the Iowa Farm Bureau

Press Release

Today, Republican nominee for U.S. Senate, Joni Ernst was endorsed by the Iowa Farm Bureau by receiving their "Friend of Agriculture" designation. Ernst grew up on a hog farm in Southwest Iowa and her teenage daughter is an active participant in 4-H.

In response to the Iowa Farm Bureau endorsement, Ernst stated, "As the rural candidate in this race, the members of Iowa's agriculture community are my friends, neighbors, constituents, and family." She continued, "Supporting renewable fuels and guarding against overreaching, burdensome federal regulations are important issues for Farm Bureau members, and I will continue to be a strong voice for Iowa agriculture in the U.S. Senate."

The Iowa Farm Bureau has deep roots in the state. Founded in 1918, it now represents more than 153,000 individual families who are members at the local level.

Ernst is a mother, soldier, independent leader from Red Oak, and the Republican nominee for Iowa's open U.S. Senate seat.
