Congressman Zach Nunn has recently highlighted several legislative initiatives and policy concerns through a series of posts on his official social media account. The posts, published between August 14 and August 15, 2025, address issues ranging from affordable housing in rural Iowa to U.S. foreign policy and the protection of Social Security benefits.

On August 14, 2025, Nunn addressed housing affordability challenges faced by Iowans: "Nearly 40% of Iowans spend over a third of their income on rent, and too many rural families can’t afford to buy a home. Our new bipartisan Rural Housing Service Reform Act makes critical updates to USDA programs, expanding affordable housing options for more families across https://t.co/R9VWSTO1KM". This statement comes amid ongoing national discussions about rising rental costs and limited access to homeownership in rural communities.

The following day, on August 15, Nunn commented on international affairs as President Trump prepared for a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska: "As President Trump prepares to meet Putin in Alaska, we're working to make sure the administration has the tools to shut down the Russian war machine with a new set of hard-hitting sanctions. This is about Peace Through Strength. https://t.co/qOciqWPx89". His remarks reference bipartisan efforts in Congress to implement additional sanctions against Russia.

Later that same day, Nunn reported on his engagement with constituents at the State Fair regarding senior benefits: "This week at the State Fair, we heard directly from seniors about protecting benefits, stopping scams, and keeping Social Security strong. Proud to join @RepBresnahan on a bipartisan resolution to honor the 90-year milestone and safeguard this program for the next generation. https://t.co/Nmh1IAjlNh". He emphasized bipartisan collaboration aimed at preserving Social Security for future generations.

Zach Nunn serves as a U.S. Congressman representing Iowa's Third Congressional District.
