Iowa Congresswoman Cindy Axne, who represents Iowa’s 3rd congressional district, has announced her intentions to run for re-election. Axne said in a tweet regarding her plan to run.

“Three years ago, I came to Congress to fight for Iowans and their needs. Since then, I’ve delivered tax cuts, disaster relief, and critical support to Iowa’s families and businesses. But my work is far from over, so I will seek to represent #IA03 again in 2022!’

Axne was first elected in 2018 defeating Republican incumbent David Young, then again defeated Young in the 2020 election. After the Iowa Legislature approved the new maps, Warren County will no longer be a part of Iowa’s 3rd congressional district beginning in 2022.
