Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, who represents Iowa’s 1st district in the U.S. Congress, highlighted recent legislative efforts and constituent support in a series of posts on August 31, 2025.

In her first post at 14:48 UTC, Miller-Meeks stated, "Small business optimism is rising, and that is no accident. As a former small business owner, I’m proud to have delivered wins like the permanent 199A deduction, lower taxes on overtime, and immediate expensing to help Iowa businesses hire and grow. https://t.co/hkLzDYNVRp".

Later that day at 15:53 UTC, she acknowledged a constituent by writing, "Thank you to William Bloom of LeClaire for exposing the Democrat scare tactics. The One Big Beautiful Bill delivers the largest tax cut ever for working and middle-class Iowans, ensuring families keep more of their hard-earned money."

At 19:22 UTC, Miller-Meeks addressed border security measures: "Thank you to Ruth Johnson of Davenport for supporting the border security provisions we passed in reconciliation. She’s right, border security is national security, and I’ll never stop fighting to defend our country and keep Iowa families safe. https://t.co/eGtXglC2KP"
