I was born an underdog. 21 surgeries by the age of 12 for spina bifida. A kid wearing goodwill hand-me-downs. I knew nothing would come easy, but I never doubted my right to the American dream. Now, I'm running for the U.S. Senate to make sure all Iowans have a shot at theirs.

My name is Josh Turek. I'm a two-time Paralympic gold medalist. I'm a proud State Legislator from Council Bluffs who represents the reddest seat held by a Democrat in Iowa. And I'm the guy who's going to beat Joni Ernst. Repost this, give us a follow, and let’s win together.

Joni Ernst doesn't care about Iowans because "we all are going to die." It's shameful. And as someone in a wheelchair from spina bifida from my dad's exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam, I'd like to see her tell that to my face.

In the Senate, I will work with anyone to clean up Washington’s corruption and get things done for Iowa. 📺 Watch our first TV ad of the General Election:
