...“My message is going to be one of uniting and working together and finding those solutions,” Muhlbauer said.

Muhlbauer said he would like to work on issues like sustainable farming as a means to help address climate change; infrastructure, including roads, bridges and broadband internet; and health care, including mental health care.

In a news release, Muhlbauer’s campaign said he is running to be a voice for working families, farmers and rural communities who, the release said, have been left behind by federal politicians and policies and devastated by policies that “cater to corporate interests and profits instead of working people.”

Muhlbauer’s campaign said he plans to cross the state in the coming days, making stops in Mason City, Cedar Falls and Waterloo, Cedar Rapids and Iowa City, Dubuque, Davenport, Des Moines, and Sioux City.

Dave Muhlbauer’s father, Dan Muhlbauer, was a former state legislator who died in October of 2020.
