Congressman Zach Nunn, representing Iowa's 3rd district, recently shared his views and concerns on various political issues through a series of tweets. These tweets highlight his ongoing efforts to seek accountability from the Biden Administration and address inefficiencies in Washington D.C.

On December 3, 2024, Congressman Nunn expressed frustration with the Biden Administration's handling of companies allegedly supporting Iran's "ghost armada." He stated: "For more than a year, I’ve fought for an answer to a simple question: Why has the Biden Administration failed to hold companies accountable for supporting the 'ghost armada' that funds Iran’s acts of terror?

Later that day, he criticized the delay in imposing sanctions on tankers involved in illicit Iranian oil sales. Nunn mentioned a previous commitment by Treasury Secretary Yellen regarding this issue: "This summer, Treasury Secretary Yellen promised the Biden Administration was 'working to crack down' on tankers aiding illicit Iranian oil sales.

In another tweet on December 3, 2024, Congressman Nunn reiterated his mission to reform Washington D.C., stating: "I’m on a mission to clean up Washington, D.C. Too many so-called 'representatives' are more focused on padding their pockets instead of putting people before politics. Not me."
