Iowa Senator Jesse Greene announced his campaign for a second term in the Iowa Senate representing District. The district includes all of Greene and Boone counties and a portion of Story and Dallas counties. He lives on Boone.
“When I ran for the Iowa Senate in 2020, one of my biggest goals was to give all Iowa parents the same choice in education available to me. I frequently tell people I benefited from both a public and private education. I was privileged to have those options and desired that every child should have the same opportunities. Instead of complaining about it, I ran to make a difference,” Green said. “I was proud to play a part in advancing school choice for all Iowans in addition to so many more policy achievements during my first term in the Iowa Senate.”
“The legislature has made huge strides in controlling property taxes, cutting income taxes, and reducing needless regulations on Iowans, but more work needs to be done. I look forward to continuing to reduce the tax burden, improve Iowa schools, and expand freedom for Iowans.”
Green is a fifth-generation farmer, born and raised near Harcourt. He farms corn, beans, oats and hay. He also raises bucking horses for rodeo and riding purposes, and longhorn cattle for roping with his father, brother and a nephew.
He has taught Bible classes at Community Christian School in Fort Dodge.
He joined the Webster County Farm Bureau and the Dayton Rodeo and Celebration committee at age 24. He served the Dayton Rodeo for more than six years in various positions, including chairman. He received the Greater Fort Dodge Growth Alliance Top 10 Under 40 Young Professionals Award in 2017.
