We're here for you, #iadist89 & #SD45!

Amazing Iowan and friend is being prevented from becoming a US Citizen. Sunday Goshit and his wife have done everything right, and their naturalization was canceled with no explanation in January. Today, they filled a lawsuit and #iadist89 supports them.

"I viewed America as a classroom."

Today is Disability Partners Day, and I had so many #iadist89 friends in the building, from Systems Unlimited, the Arc of East Central Iowa, and Iowa DD Council, among others!

Starting the day off right with the JoCo Ag/Business Group, hearing their questions about Geologic Hydrogen Exploration in Iowa with Associate State Geologist Ryan Clark. We are so lucky to have these state resources right in our front yard in @johnsoncountyia and #IADist89!

#IADist89 check-in tomorrow, Friday, 6-7pm at 2Dogs Pub!

#FilingDay! That's right, #IADist89, I'm asking to be your State Representative for another 2 years!
I've found new, productive ways to advocate for and build towards Iowa's progressive future every year. I'm leading on environment, on education, and on queer existence!
Please #ConsiderCompassion!

Today, on LGBTQ+ Day on the Hill, I'll file for re-election in 2026. #IADist89 had a lot to give, and we're just getting started!

Go to www.LevinforIowa.com to donate, volunteer, and help me make Iowa's legislature the welcoming place we deserve!

State Senator Janice Weiner is the team member I would choose to have in my corner every time, and we're going to keep #ListeningBeforeLegislating because that's what Iowans in #SD45 and #IADist89 deserve!

State Senator Janice Weiner and Representative Elinor Levin have a joint forum in #iadist89 on Sunday, Feb 15, 12-1pm at Sidekick Coffee & Books in University Heights.

Come join us to share your questions, concerns, confusion, or thoughts. Or just come to get a boost of hope about #Iowa 's future!

I'll keep digging into your specific concerns and appreciate your guidance!

#iadist89 was unified- the cost of living is weighing us down, and I'm going to keep pushing my #ialegis colleagues to get to work on REAL solutions that will help people, not divisive bills based in conspiracy theories!

Sen. Janice Weiner and I have coordinated some joint forums in #iadist89 for the session, and the first one is Sunday, Feb 15, 12-1pm at Sidekick Coffee and Books!

Come join us to share your questions, concerns, confusion, or thoughts. Or just come to get a boost of hope about Iowa's future!

I have the absolute pleasure of representing the Iowa Geological Survey and State Geologist's Office in #IADist89, and was pleased to welcome Ryan Clark and Keith Schilling to the building to present to the Environmental Protection Committee on the topic of Hydrogen Exploration in Iowa!

Thanks to 2Dogs for agreeing to be my venue for these four Friday evening check-ins! I have to be honest, I always pick #IADist89 locations where I know I'm going to enjoy my meal, no matter how many people show up!

County Supervisor Mandi Remington is planning to seek the District 5 seat in the 2026, covering most of #iadist89.

(Forcing JoCo into districts against the will of the voters is STILL unequal treatment under the law, FYI.)

Utterly charmed to join this group of retired teachers and the Ukrainian women's wrestling team in #IADist89 for lunch and beautiful carols!

After discussing holiday traditions across generations, the single topic on everyone's mind is protecting the future of IPERS.

Love meeting close to home at Zoetic Coffee in the South of 6 South District Market off of Hwy 6!

Failed to get a picture with Supervisor Fixmer-Oraiz, but it's always SO great to catch up, share what we're seeing and hearing, and work together for our future!

When I'm busy running around #IADist89, I feel lucky to be able to stop into amazing places like Sidekick Coffee and Books to not only do a little holiday shopping for my niblings and run into friends, but also get a piece of quiche and a hot chocolate to fuel me for the next meeting!

#IADist89 really is filled with beauty.

Opening morning at Zoetic Coffee So6 #IADist89 location!

I got to be the first customer and can't wait to sip my Immunitea at the bank, as I teach, and all the way through my busy morning!

They're open today until 11:00 am, so get in and check them out!

Drive safe ALL WINTER LONG, friends!
