Reaching the right audience requires a coordinated approach.

A single channel is rarely enough. Decision-makers aren't all in the same room — they're spread across hearings, inboxes, social feeds, community meetings, and news cycles. Effective advocacy follows them there.

Multi-channel advocacy isn't about being everywhere for the sake of it. It's about showing up consistently in the spaces that matter to the people who matter — with the right message, in the right format, at the right moment.

That requires coordination. A social post that reinforces a stakeholder meeting. A media placement that amplifies a coalition statement. A digital campaign that keeps the message alive between in-person touchpoints.

When the channels work together, the message compounds. When they don't, the impact leaks out at every seam.

Effective advocacy meets people where they are.

Thank you Rep. David Young David Young for taking the time to give our team an in-depth tour of the Iowa State Capitol.

We finished the tour off with some delicious gyros at Olympic Flame Des Moines. What a great way to spend the last few days of the 2026 internship!

The wins you see are built on work you don't. Behind every successful advocacy effort is a process of constant strategy, refinement, and real-time decision-making. Here's what that actually looks like.

Our interns traded the office for hard hats yesterday! They spent the afternoon touring the CornLP ethanol plant, getting a firsthand look at the type of clients we get to work with every day.

There's nothing quite like seeing the operations in person to really understand the industry — a huge thank you to Elizabeth, Rusty, and the entire CornLP team for welcoming our interns and sharing their time and expertise. 🙌🌽

The wins you see are built on work you don’t see. Behind every successful advocacy effort is constant refinement, real-time decisions, and a strategy that evolves as the landscape does. Process isn't unglamorous — it's everything.

250 YEARS OF FREEDOM

Two hundred and fifty years ago, a handful of colonies dared to declare something the world had never quite seen: that people have an unalienable right to Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.

Today we celebrate a quarter of a millennium of that promise — imperfect, still unfolding, and worth fighting for every single day.

From backyard barbecues to fireworks lighting up the sky, from small towns to big cities, we're all part of the same story that started on July 4, 1776.

Here's to the next 250 years. 🇺🇸

Iowa’s farmers deserve a freight rail system that keeps prices affordable, strengthens supply chains and protects consumers.

Right now, a proposed mega-merger between two major railroads threatens to eliminate competition and raise costs nationwide. Americans for a Competitive Tomorrow is highlighting the voices of Iowa farmers that stand to lose the most from rail consolidation.

Fragmented efforts produce fragmented results. When advocacy and communications work together — with aligned messaging and coordinated timing — the impact multiplies. That's what an integrated approach delivers.

Our interns had a fantastic opportunity to spend the day with the team at Summit Agricultural Group for their Cattle Day event!

The visit provided valuable hands-on learning experiences and insights into cattle management, animal nutrition, herd health, and the day-to-day operations that drive success in the livestock industry. Our interns enjoyed connecting with industry professionals, asking questions, and gaining a deeper understanding of the important role cattle production plays in agriculture.

A big thank you to Summit Agricultural Group for hosting our interns and sharing their expertise. Opportunities like these help prepare the next generation of agricultural leaders by connecting classroom knowledge with real-world experience.
