As the campaign for Iowa’s third U.S. House district gains momentum, Lanon Baccam emerges as a beacon of hope for progress and a brighter future.
With a proven track record of dedication to public service, Lanon Baccam embodies the values and principles that will lead our nation forward. Lanon is a veteran who served eight years in the U.S. Army and Iowa National Guard and was deployed to Afghanistan in 2004. He has never forgotten his fellow veterans and has dedicated his life to helping them.
Throughout his career, Lanon Baccam has shown an unwavering commitment to addressing the pressing issues facing our communities. Following his military service, Lanon served in the U.S. Department of Agriculture under former Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack. There, he worked to support veterans, expand pathways to jobs in the agriculture industry, and promote training and entrepreneurship opportunities for veterans transitioning to careers in agriculture.
Lanon Baccam’s leadership, integrity, and dedication make him the clear choice for Congress. I urge voters in the third Congressional district to join me in supporting Lanon Baccam in the Democratic primary on June 4. Together, we can build a brighter future for all Iowans.
Editor’s note: Bleeding Heartland does not plan to endorse in any 2024 Iowa Democratic primaries, but welcomes guest posts by candidates for state or federal offices, or by their supporters. Please read these guidelines and contact Laura Belin if you are interested in writing.

Integrity
Integrity is paramount in our public officials. Lanon has an abundance of it. Beyond his experience in public policy and his many years of service to our country, his integrity is one of the most important traits that sets him apart from his opponent. He has earned our support and our votes on June 4 and in the general election in November. He’s got mine!

impressive resume but Biden hurts down ticket races
Cook Political Report rates IA-3 as “lean Republican.” Nunn will not be an easy out. Baccam has a very impressive resume but unfortunately Biden will be at the top of ticket. Look for the bad orange man to provide coattails to IA GOP incumbents making them even more difficult for the IDP. Party can’t afford another shutout or will be doomed to permanent “minority status’.
