Congressman Zach Nunn, representing Iowa’s 3rd district, recently shared a series of tweets addressing key issues in his state. Elected to the U.S. Congress in 2023, Nunn has been active in legislative efforts and community engagement.

On May 12, 2025, Congressman Nunn expressed gratitude towards law enforcement officers during National Police Week. He stated, "Every day, Iowa’s law enforcement officers put themselves in harm's way to protect our families and communities." This message was posted at 16:11 UTC.

Later that day at 18:41 UTC, he highlighted a critical issue regarding maternal healthcare in Iowa. In his tweet, he noted that "33 of our 99 counties are maternal care deserts—leaving moms without access to the care they need." He announced the introduction of bipartisan legislation aimed at expanding maternal health homes to ensure comprehensive care for mothers.

At 20:55 UTC on the same day, Congressman Nunn continued his focus on maternal health by discussing a visit to Broadlawns Medical Center. He tweeted about introducing a bipartisan bill designed to improve healthcare access for rural mothers in Iowa. As he mentioned, "Too many Iowa moms are forced to rely on emergency care when prevention could have saved lives."

Zach Nunn was born in Story City, Iowa and resides in Bondurant. Before serving in Congress since 2023, he was part of the Iowa House of Representatives from 2015 to 2019 and served on the Iowa Senate from 2019 until his congressional election.
