Destination Alaska

8 x 8 argo backcountry tour.

If you are looking to explore the Alaska backcountry by land, we have a trip designed just for you! Destination Alaska purchased five brand new Argo Conquest 950 Outfitters. We chose this type of vehicle specifically for their light foot print and impact on the environment.  The lbs. per Sq/Ft on tracks is one of the lightest in the industry.  These 8x8 amphibious tracked vehicles will take you places that other machines simply cannot go. Let’s get started! Your trip begins at our Beluga Lake office at 9:00 a.m. where we’ll size everyone up for waterproof hip boots. Yes…. it’s going to be that kind of adventure! At the office, we’ll complete some paperwork, give you a brief description of the day, and go over some trail maps to plan our route of travel. Now, load up and follow us out to the trailhead at the end of Kachemak Bay. The drive out East End road has some of the best views in the state. Mountains, glaciers, an old forest fire area, and alpine meadows are just a few of the things you’ll see on this journey. Once we arrive at the launch site, we’ll have a short driving lesson and safety brief and we’re off! You’ll spend the next several hours navigating through the swamps and forests searching for moose and other wildlife that call this part of the woods home. Fantastic views are an added bonus as we make our way out to Matthew's Mountain. Once at the peak we’ll take a break and have a hearty lunch. Nothing builds an appetite like fresh air and driving through mud. After lunch, we’ll explore even more backcountry as we make our way back the landing. Are you up for the challenge?

TRIP ITINERARY - Meet at Beluga Lake - 9:00 a.m. - Size for hip boots and last-minute check on necessary supplies and gear - Shuttle leaves at 9:30 a.m. for the trailhead - Safety brief and driving instructions - Depart the trailhead at 10:30 a.m. - Arrive at Matthew's Mountain at 12:30 p.m. - Lunch from 12:30 to 1:15 P.m. - Explore back to the parking area - Return to Beluga Lake 4:30 p.m.

Cost = $1500 per Argo (up to 3 people) (plus taxes, park fees, fuel surcharge) *3% processing fee will be applied to all credit card payments. Wire transfers and checks accepted.

How many people can go on this trip? Each Argo can take four guests for a total of 14 plus 2 guides.

Is there a minimum group size? Yes... We have a 1 Argo Minimum.

How the Great Migration Shaped the Life of Emmett Till

In 1923, Wiley Carthan left Mississippi on the Illinois Central Railroad, heading for Chicago. He settled just outside the Chicago city limits in the town of Argo, Illinois. Argo’s real name was Summit, but the largest corn processing plant in the world—the maker of Karo syrup, Bosco malted milk,… View Story | Show on Map

The Argo House – A Place for Creative Business

by Rachel Trotter | Wednesday, 10 October, 2018

Annette Heileson is the ambassador for The Argo House and she calls it a place for “creative business.” “ The Argo House  is a group of evolving creative companies that strive to enhance culture through education, mentoring and collaboration. Individually our companies exhibit success in an environment of commercial competition, while together, pursuing audacious, culturally significant projects that elevate the subjective and objective value of our community,” is the philosophy on their website. Heileson said the owners and tenants live by that philosophy.

The dream of The Argo House came together with three Argo’s, Heileson said. James and Lauren Argo are industrial designers that needed a space to create their passions. Mary Argo, James’s mom needed space when she came to Ogden to visit. She has always had a fascination with old homes. The property used to be a mortuary, so the space was ideal for James and Lauren and Mary loved the idea of remodeling the old home and space. “They have done amazing things,” Heileson said. “Mary doesn’t do anything half way,” she added. For example, she noted that Mary brought in hardwood from Oregon that had to rest and adapt to the Utah climate. “She has cut no corners,” Heileson said.

Another goal of The Argo House is for tenants to foster a creative and collaborative environment. “You can have so much more creativity when you collaborate than with just one person,” Heileson said. She has noticed a positive energy in the space. While office tenants have their own work and business space, there is also a large communal area both inside and outside for artists to work together and bounce ideas off of each other. She has found it interesting that businesses, no matter what their artistic bend is, can still collaborate and get gain from one another. “It’s a wonderful environment to walk into,” Heileson said. While it’s an office, it doesn’t really feel that way because of the creative space and feel there.

Amenities for tenants include a secure facility, professional networking, showers, a break room, high speed internet access, access to outdoor patio and courtyard, housekeeping, private conference space, utility space and communal space. There are also regular business meetings for the business owners to create the collaborative vibe.

The Argo House is part of the Nine Rails Creative District as well. It has worked with the city in collaboration to make the creative space in inner city Ogden come to life.

The Argo House is open for people to come check it out. Appointments can be made by booking online. Heileson encourages people to come and check it out and if there are any local creative business looking for a place to land, The Argo House may be the perfect fit.

OUR PRIVACY POLICY DOES NOT COVER: (I) THE INFORMATION COLLECTED AND USED ON SOCIAL MEDIA SITES WHERE THE ARGO SOLUTIONS IS PRESENT; AND (II) THE INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE TO SITES WE ADVERTISE ON.

• SECURITY AND PROTECTION OF YOUR INFORMATION

The security of your information is a priority for ARGO SOLUTIONS. The information collected by ARGO SOLUTIONS will be stored and safeguarded in accordance with strict security and reliability standards. However, the technology to ensure the security of Internet data transmissions develops and becomes obsolete quickly, so it is difficult to keep up to date at all times. It is impossible to state that the current safeguards and systems are completely infallible. Therefore, in spite of all of ARGO SOLUTIONS’ efforts to preserve your information, no transaction carried out via the Internet is totally secure, meaning that ARGO SOLUTIONS cannot affirm that the information provided herein is fully protected. Finally, the most important part of protecting your information is your responsibility, so you should always keep your antivirus and firewall systems up to date, as well as configure your browsers and operating systems with the purpose of avoiding unauthorized sending of data and information over the Internet. Check the protective measures used by ARGO SOLUTIONS to protect your information and your privacy below.

(I) User Password

To ensure that third parties will not have access to the information stored here, you, the user of the system offered by ARGO SOLUTIONS through this website, must choose a personal and non-transferable access password, which can and should be changed at any time. You are exclusively responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and use of your password.

(II) Personal Information

Personal information provided to us spontaneously by you or your company will be collected in accordance with ethical and legal standards, always following strict security and reliability standards, and will not be disclosed to third parties, except for employees authorized for the proper use of the data, unless there is a legal or judicial determination or a determination from a competent authority. We may possibly use cookies (*) to confirm your identity, personalize your access and monitor the use of our website and systems, aiming to improve browsing and functionality.

(III) Other Security Measures

It is your responsibility to take precautions to ensure the security of your computer and its information, including but not limited to the installation of antivirus programs, firewalls and/or other protection items. The systems used on this website do not affect the original configuration of the computers being used to access the ARGO SOLUTIONS website and systems, or the factory settings or configurations made by you on the computers being used. We recommend that you only use legal programs, without infringing anybody's property rights, and to update your antivirus and firewall regularly. Most Internet browsers allow you to activate mechanisms at any time that inform you when cookies are triggered or to prevent them from being triggered, although this may affect the use of certain functions on our website and systems. In addition to the aforementioned safety measures, after 20 minutes of inactivity on the ARGO SOLUTIONS systems being used, such systems will automatically cancel the browsing in progress, preventing unauthorized third parties from accessing your information and activities that you are performing or have performed, in case you are away from the computer for a long time.

(IV) Specific Credit Card Information

When using credit cards as a payment method for any services, it is up to you, the user, to take the necessary precautions to ensure the security of your information, including but not limited to always keeping the card stored in a protected place and out of the view of third parties, not writing down any card data, or sending data via e-mail messages. ARGO SOLUTIONS follows the best practices for secure development and follows the PCI-SSC recommendations regarding data security for credit card holders, but if you do not take the necessary precautions, the security features of the system alone may not be sufficient. If you have questions about any transactions performed, always consult your credit card administrator.

The information collected by Argo Solutions will be stored and kept in accordance with strict security and reliability standards. However, the technology for guaranteeing the security of data transmissions via the Internet develops and becomes obsolete rapidly, making it difficult to keep up to date at all times. It is impossible to claim that current systems and safeguards are completely foolproof. Therefore, despite all Argo Solutions' efforts to preserve your information, no transaction carried out over the Internet is completely secure, so Argo Solutions cannot claim that the information provided here is fully protected. Finally, the most important part of protecting your information is up to you, so you should always keep your antivirus and firewall systems up to date, as well as your browsers and operating systems configured, always with the aim of preventing unauthorized sending of data and information over the Internet. Check below the protection measures used by Argo Solutions to protect your information and privacy. (I) User Password To ensure that third parties do not have access to the information stored here, you, the user of the systems offered by Argo Solutions through its Platforms, must choose a personal and non-transferable access password, which can and must be changed at any time. You are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy and use of your password. (II) Personal Information Personal information spontaneously provided to us by you or your company will be collected in accordance with ethical and legal standards, always adhering to strict security and reliability standards, and will not be disclosed to third parties, but only to authorized employees for the proper use of the data, except when there is a legal, judicial or competent authority order. Occasionally, we may use cookies to confirm your identity, personalize your access and track the use of our Platforms, in order to improve your browsing and functionality. (III) Other security measures It is up to you, the user, to take the necessary precautions to ensure the security of your device and your information, such as, but not limited to, installing antivirus programs, firewalls and/or other protection items. The systems used on the Argo Platforms have no affect on the original configuration of the devices you are using to access them, nor the factory settings or the settings made by you on the computers you use. We recommend that you only use legal programs, without infringing on anyone's property rights, and that you update your antivirus and firewall regularly. Most internet browsers allow you, at any time, to activate mechanisms to inform you when cookies are triggered or to prevent them from being triggered, although this may affect the use of some functions of our Platforms. In addition to the aforementioned security measures, after 20 minutes of inactivity in the Argo Solutions systems used by you, these systems will automatically cancel the navigation in progress, preventing unauthorized third parties from accessing your information and the activities you are carrying out or have carried out if you are absent for a long time from the computer in use. (IV) Specific credit card information When using credit cards as a means of payment for any services, it is up to you, the User, to take the necessary precautions to ensure the security of your information, such as, but not limited to, keeping your card in a protected place out of the sight of third parties, not writing down your card details on paper, or sending them by e-mail. Argo Solutions follows the best practices in secure development and adheres to the recommendations maintained by the PCI-SSC regarding the security of credit card holder data, but if you don't take the necessary precautions, the system's security features alone may not be enough. If you have any doubts about your transactions, always consult your credit card company. (V) Specific information on the collection of location data on the mobile device In order to offer the service of controlling expenses by route taken, we collect information regarding the geolocation of our users' devices through our application upon prior request. Geolocation collection is activated only when the user presses the button in the application that starts the tracking, and can be stopped instantly by the same button if the user so wishes. Background tracking also only starts once this button has been activated. • ON YOUR PRIVACY Argo Solutions respects your privacy. Any information you provide to us will be kept in its entirety, will be treated with the greatest possible care and security, and will only be used in accordance with the limits set out in this document and applicable Brazilian legislation. Please, be aware that we may exchange information about you with reputable reference sources, regulatory bodies, research services and business partners. The customer service channels of Argo Solutions and its licensees are at your disposal. • GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS ON PROTECTING YOUR PRIVACY You, as already explained, also have an important role to play in protecting your privacy. We expressly recommend that you do not disclose your password to anyone, whether by telephone, e-mail or any other means, and that you do not allow anyone to access or use the systems offered by Argo Solutions in your place. Argo Solutions cannot be held responsible for damage caused by failure to comply with these recommendations. Be careful when downloading free programs, as they are often accompanied by a variety of programs that can not only affect the privacy of your information, but also alter your computer's security settings. Ideally, you should always use a technician, preferably one hired by your company, when you need to download and install programs, or even to configure your device and its antivirus and firewall protection systems. Always follow your company's information security recommendations and policies. • ABOUT UNSUBSCRIBING AND CHANGING/DELETING PERSONAL INFORMATION All data collected will be deleted from our servers when you so request, unless there is another reason for maintaining it, such as any legal obligation to retain data or the need to preserve it for the protection of Argo Solutions' rights. To change your personal information or even delete it from our database, simply send an e-mail to [email protected] with your request. You can also opt out of receiving any kind of e-mail from Argo Solutions. In every email we send, there is always an unsubscribe link available in the last few lines.

Colorado Tours: Historic Mills you can Visit Today!

Colorado offers an abundance of adventures intrinsic to its environment. From exploring the gargantuan Rocky Mountains to dipping in the sumptuous hot springs, the possibilities of boredom remain nearly impossible. But these adventures seem almost too obvious to those longing for a Colorado concoction of fun. Diving deeper, natives and tourists alike will both learn the most unique experiences of Colorado lie within the mills. With that said, this great state offers an array of Colorado tours of mills aside from the amazing Argo Mill.

Colorado Tours: The Mayflower Mill

Located two miles northeast of Silverton, the Mayflower Mill offers Colorado tours in which guests observe how miners extracted gold, silver and base metals from hard rock ores in the complete processing mill. As the last and most advanced big mill of San Juan, this makes for a unique experience. Furthermore, to enjoy Colorado tours like this one, it’s important to understand the history of the mills themselves.

Built of pre-framed Oregon fir perfect for mountains and harsh winter climates, successful mine manager Charles A. Chase conceptualized the project. With the assistance of the latest industrial equipment of the time like steam shovels and dump trucks, the project welcomed completion in 6 months and began processing ore in February of 1930. Impressively, the mill ran 62 years with 49 years of milling and a 12-year off period, milling 9,700,500 tons of rock. Additionally, the mill produced 1,940,100 ounces of gold, 30,000,000 ounces of silver and 1,000,000 tons of combined base metals! The mill was declared a National Historic Landmark in 2000 and offers self-guided tours in the summer months. Moreover, whether self-guided or conducted, there are more Colorado tours in store!

Other Mills to Explore

Although Colorado once homed a plethora of precious metal mills, there remain only so many well-preserved mills. Despite some being in ruins, there is still fun in learning the history within them. With all things considered, Creede, Colorado remains notable for being one of the last great silver-mining boom towns in our state. Home to the Humphreys Mill which produced about 1,000 tons of shippable ore per month, 700 tons of that being lead and the rest of it being zinc, silver and gold. All of which decreased amounts in order. For more than a decade, the mill operated at a profit and despite the complexity and size of it, a nine-man crew ran the mill at full capacity. Unfortunately, only the foundation of this mill is visible today.

Fortunately, there are many mills if you’re looking for Colorado tours. Check out historycolorado.org to discover mills that appeal to you. However, you’ll find what your heart desires in the greatest mill of Colorado.

The Best of Colorado Tours: The Argo

Intersecting all the major gold mines between Idaho Springs and Central City, Colorado, The Argo Tunnel and Mill makes passage for one to experience the most golden joy in all of Colorado tours. With the aid of preservationists, in 2016 the Argo made sensational improvements to the site, becoming the best mill to experience in all of Colorado. The history of this mill brings visitors joy to learn about and is only 30 minutes west of Denver. To experience one of the state’s most well-preserved mills and an adventure deeply engrained in Colorado, book your trip to the Argo today!

Meet the 2 Democrats challenging Zach Nunn for Iowa's 3rd Congressional District seat

Three candidates are competing to represent Iowa's 3rd Congressional District, which includes Des Moines, Adel, Ottumwa and Red Oak in the South-central portion of the state.

Incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Zach Nunn is seeking re-election to a second term. Two Democrats, Lanon Baccam and Melissa Vine, are competing for the chance to face him in the general election.

To help voters, the Des Moines Register sent questions to all federal and Des Moines area legislative candidates running for political office this year. Their answers have been lightly edited for length and clarity.

The primary election is scheduled for June 4 ahead of the Nov. 5 general election.

More: Everything you need to know about the June 4 primary election, including voting absentee

Who is Zach Nunn?

Party: Republican.

Current town of residence: Bondurant.

Education: I graduated from Southeast Polk and then Drake University. I hold master's degrees in International Security from Cambridge University, Cybersecurity from Air Command & Staff College, and Strategy & Technology from Air War College.

Occupation: U.S. Representative, colonel in the U.S. Air Force Reserve.

Political experience and civic activities: U.S. Representative (IA-03) from 2023-present; Iowa Senate 2018-2022; Iowa House of Representatives 2014-18. Civic Activities: Task Force Argo, Co-Founder; Harkin Institute Scholarship Board; Knights of Columbus, 4th Degree; Veterans of Foreign Wars, Altoona Post founders; American Legion, Bondurant Post

Who is Lanon Baccam?

Party: Democrat.

Current town of residence: Des Moines.

Education: Drake University.

Occupation: Former U.S. Department of Agriculture official.

Political experience and civic activities: I have an extensive history of public service and civic engagement. I have over 10 years of experience serving in various role at the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) including as the Deputy Under Secretary for Farm and Foreign Agricultural Services and Military Veterans Agricultural Liaison, and more recently as the Deputy Chief of Staff at USDA.

Who is Melissa Vine

Current town of residence: West Des Moines.

Education: Drake Law School, Iowa State University.

Occupation: Executive director at The Beacon, a home and programming for women coming out of trauma.

Political experience and civic activities: My passion is changing systems that are harming people. At The Beacon, we collaborated with the government to launch jail diversion so women can stay in the community with their children and receive mental health support rather than being incarcerated. Previously, I collaborated with Iowa’s colleges and universities to reduce the amount of sexual assaults on campus by changing how they approach victim prevention and response.

What would be your top issue should you be elected?

Nunn: I came to Washington to find real solutions for Iowans, and after completing several 21-county tours of our district, it’s clear that common challenges unite us: crippling inflation, high taxes, burdensome government red tape, and the crisis at our southern border. The status quo in Washington is critically broken, and I’m fighting to bring Iowa common sense to our nation’s capital while we address these critical issues for Iowa families.

Baccam: Congress lacks leaders who will rise above the dysfunction in Washington, work across the aisle, and actually get things done for Iowa families. As a combat veteran, public servant, and rural Iowa native, I believe elected officials should serve their communities — not their party. I’m running to deliver real results for Iowa. With effective leaders in office, we can get back to work and take action to lower costs, grow the middle class, and protect reproductive freedom. It's time for us to focus on hardworking families and help them get ahead — and we can start by finding ways to lower the costs of groceries and gas prices.

Vine: 1. Provide access to safe and legal abortion and women's healthcare. 2. Support an income that works for all Iowans. 3. Move away from extremism in our politics to protect our democracy and get to work for Iowans.

What is the most important domestic policy you would champion in Congress?

Nunn: Our border is an unmitigated disaster due to the open-border policies championed by the current administration. Even though we are not a border state, our communities are feeling the effects of this administration’s failed policies in the rise in fentanyl and costs to the taxpayer. We must address this crisis — and reduce the burden on every community across the country. I won’t rest until we’ve secured our southern border.

Baccam: Raised by factory workers in rural Iowa, I know the challenges families are facing in this district. Too many Iowans are being left behind and can’t get ahead, no matter how hard they work. Middle class families are the backbone of Iowa, and they deserve to be put first again. I’ll champion policies that grow the middle class, including lowering costs, creating good-paying jobs, protecting Social Security and Medicare, and expanding access to affordable health care.

Vine: On my first day in Congress, I would introduce a bill to codify Roe. MAGA Republicans have gone too far and will continue to roll back reproductive rights, putting women and their physicians at risk. Currently, our state is losing OB/GYNs because their critical work is being criminalized. Across the country, we need access to safe and legal abortion and protections for IVF and birth control. 

What is a specific piece of bipartisan legislation you would push for in Congress?

Nunn: More than 80% of the bills I’ve introduced have bipartisan support — including two bills I led to expand rural housing and support servicemembers that are now law. There’s more work to do. The Chinese Communist Party will stop at nothing to endanger our economy and national security. They are buying up all the farmland they can get their hands on. We must defend our country and our livelihood — and that starts by preventing China from purchasing American farmland. As a member of the Agriculture Committee, I’m working across the aisle to stop China and support family farms.

Baccam: From serving as a combat engineer in Afghanistan to implementing critical investments in rural communities at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, I’ve never let partisanship get in the way of getting the job done. I’ll lead the same way in Congress and will always seek to work in a bipartisan manner. Specifically, I’ll work across the aisle on the Farm Bill to support our farmers and ranchers and invest in our communities.

Vine: The Farm Bill.

What specific steps, if any, should Congress take to secure the border and improve immigration policy?

Nunn: In the past three years, there have been more than 7.4 million illegal crossings of our southern border — and that number is growing. Working to reform our broken immigration system, end the humanitarian crisis, and stop fentanyl trafficking should not be a partisan issue, which is why I’ve led bipartisan legislation to combat this direct threat. I am committed to finding a solution that will protect our communities and secure the border, including increasing the number of border patrol agents, strengthening physical security at the border, protecting against human trafficking, streamlining the asylum process, ending “catch-and-release,” and more.

Baccam: We must secure the border. DC politicians are playing endless politics with the southern border, even killing a rare bipartisan deal for purely political reasons. While imperfect, the bill would have made real progress by hiring more border patrol agents and funding more technology to detect fentanyl. It’s far past time to take steps like these. As the son of refugees, I also know how critical it is that our immigration policies are humane. In Congress, I will work across the aisle, put politics aside, and secure the border while creating pathways to citizenship.

Vine: 1. Provide quicker access to legal status by hiring more judges. 2. Utilize technology and screening tools to prevent bad actors from entering the United States. 3. Protect the children of immigrants (Dreamers).

After the fall of Roe v. Wade, America is seeing a wide variety of abortion laws across states. Should Congress create a federal policy outlining abortion restrictions that are uniform across the country? If so, what should that look like?

Nunn: Good people can disagree on the issue of abortion. Let me be clear on where I’ve always stood: I’m pro-life, voted for exceptions, and fought for access to contraceptives and IVF. I oppose a federal ban and believe abortion policy should be left up to the states. In Congress, I’m fighting back against extremes in both parties and working to bring real solutions for Iowa families.

Baccam: I will fight tirelessly to restore the protections guaranteed by Roe v. Wade. Politicians have no business making a decision that should be between a woman and her doctor. Iowa passed one of the most restrictive abortion bans in the country, banning abortion before many women even know they’re pregnant. Zach Nunn voted for a nearly identical version of this bill while in the state Legislature. There’s so much at stake in this election. If we send leaders to Congress who will restore Roe v. Wade, we can ensure Iowa women have the freedom to make their own reproductive decisions.

Vine: The current patchwork of state-by-state rights for women is failing. We need to win back the majority in the House and codify Roe. No person should be criminalized for seeking or providing healthcare.

Should Congress take steps to protect Americans’ access to in-vitro fertilization?

Nunn: Absolutely. As a father of six, I’ll never have a more important title than ‘Dad.’ I believe anyone who is hoping to start a family should have access to the tools to do so, including IVF, fertility treatments or adoption. In Congress, I’m working on legislation to support IVF treatment access and use across the country.

Baccam: Without a doubt. My beautiful 8-year-old daughter is my entire world. I believe every Iowan deserves the right to start or grow their family on their own terms, and I will never waver from that in Congress. If elected, I will co-sponsor the Access to Family Building Act to ensure every Iowan has access to in-vitro fertilization. With attacks on IVF access happening right here at the state level, enshrining federal protections is more important than ever. Our current representative, however, has yet to sign onto this legislation guaranteeing Iowans’ right to IVF.

Vine: Yes, the attacks on IVF are adjacent to the attacks on abortion access. These issues are leading more people, especially women, to vote for Democratic candidates. That is why it's critical that Democrats pick the sharpest contrast to anti-choice Republican Zach Nunn in the June 4 primary. Currently, Congress is only 29% women, and we need women now more than ever to protect our rights.

Iowans are struggling with rising costs and inflation. What can Congress do to fix it?

Nunn: The most important issue I hear from Iowans during my 21 county tours is ensuring stability when it comes to everyday necessities — having access to a good-paying job to put food on the table, filling up gas tanks, and affording college or retirement savings. Recently, 40-year high inflation rates have been crushing Americans. We’ve had to pay $10,000 extra so far just to pay for the same necessities. It’s unacceptable. To address rising inflation, I’ve voted to rein in out-of-control government spending, reduce taxes for Iowa families, and unleash American energy.

Baccam: Rising costs have made it harder and harder for our families to make ends meet but Washington politicians aren't getting anything done to address it. We have to take action and bring costs down — now. First, we need to increase competition so big corporations can't drive up prices for hard working Iowans while raking in record profits for themselves. Additionally, we can do more to lower prescription drug costs, like capping the cost of insulin at $35 per month for all Americans.

Vine: Congress can address rising costs and inflation by implementing targeted measures. These include increasing accountability in corporate pricing to prevent price gouging, reinstating the child tax credit to alleviate childhood poverty, and ensuring fair taxation so teachers aren't paying more taxes than billionaires.

What policies would you advocate to include in the next Farm Bill?

Nunn: Every Iowan is impacted by the Farm Bill and agriculture policy. That’s why I’ve engaged hundreds of Iowans at my open Farm Bill listening sessions throughout our community as we craft this legislation. As a member of the Agriculture Committee, I’ve been fighting for Iowa’s nearly 85,000 farms by advocating to drive down input costs, strengthen the farm safety net, increase rural economic development (including rural broadband), bolster innovation and security in agriculture, conserve farmland and natural resources, protect water quality, prevent dangerous puppy mills, and ensure American energy independence through Iowa biofuels.

Baccam: The Farm Bill has a huge impact for Iowa and our economy, and Washington politicians aren't getting the job done. This Congress let the Farm Bill expire for months and has still yet to pass a new five-year bill. The Farm Bill should be a priority, not an afterthought. Whether it's strengthening the safety net for our farmers and ranchers, to investing in our rural communities by expanding high speed internet and rural infrastructure projects, or through the nutrition programs — I have already helped to deliver for Iowans while at USDA and will push for a strong bipartisan Farm Bill when I'm in Congress.

Vine: Iowa has the second-highest cancer rate in the country. I would advocate for incentives to expand conservation efforts that lead to cleaner water for our families. Additionally, I would work to ensure that all children in poverty have adequate SNAP benefits to meet their needs. Not only is it the right thing to do, but every dollar we invest in childhood poverty saves $7 of public funding when the child becomes an adult.

What should be Congress' priority when addressing the federal budget — cutting spending or directing money toward programs and services? 

Nunn: Every day, Iowans balance their budgets at home — and our government should too. That’s why the first bill I introduced was a commonsense bill to balance the federal budget. It’s no coincidence that government spending is at a decade high while families across the country are struggling to make ends meet with skyrocketing inflation. We must find bipartisan compromise to cut unnecessary federal spending, while still 100% supporting the critical programs that Iowans rely on, such as Social Security, Medicare, VA benefits and more.

Baccam: We need to spend responsibly, and I will do everything I can to lower the deficit. However, we shouldn’t do this at the expense of Iowa’s middle class families. Many DC politicians are pushing relentlessly to slash Social Security and Medicare. In fact, Zach Nunn’s latest budget did exactly that. I know how critical these programs are for our seniors, and I will never put them in jeopardy. We must come together in a bipartisan way to ensure we’re spending responsibly while also helping Iowa families get ahead.

Vine: I believe that social responsibility and fiscal responsibility can co-exist when programs are implemented efficiently and effectively. For example, at The Beacon, our model offers housing and services to women at $26/day per person, compared to $106/day taxpayers spend on incarceration. To foster prosperity for all Iowans, we must reduce government spending where it’s ineffective, expand Social Security and Medicare benefits, lower income caps for individuals with disabilities, and create an environment where everyone can thrive.
