Rob Sand

Iowa State Auditor, father, bowhunter, former prosecutor, pizza auditor. Running to be Iowa's next Governor. Public servant, not a politician.
Anyone building in Iowa should be contributing, not extracting from it. That's why my data centers plan calls for no more tax breaks to these major corporations. And when it comes to our natural resources & utilities, they need to be responsible for those, too. https://bit.ly/4q1ryWA
My Plan to Hold Big Corporations and Data Centers Accountable | Rob Sand for Iowa
Rob Sand for Iowa Governor. Rob is only beholden to the people of Iowa, and Rob stands up for what's right, even when it's hard.

This was a really productive conversation, and getting to hear directly from cancer survivors made it even more important.
When it comes to data centers, they should be carrying their own weight, not raising Iowans' costs for anything, & should respect the communities they want to move to. Bottom line - anything built in Iowa should be contributing to Iowa, not extracting from us. https://bit.ly/4hNhEFJ

For 10 years, insiders have distracted us with division & culture wars because that way, they can keep picking our pockets. I’m thankful for Iowans like Mace, and so many others, who are tired of the direction politics is going. It's time for change.
How often do you see folks in politics giving up the microphone to actually listen? Not often. Come to one of my town halls, and you'll see it a lot.
Le Mars is always a good stop on my annual 100 Town Hall Tour. And no, I don't have a favorite ice cream; if it's there, I'll enjoy it. https://www.nwestiowa.com/sentinel/sand-brings-campaign-for-governor-to-le-mars/article_1527824c-71e1-48bc-a4e2-edfabed65cf6.html#/gallery

I want to bring the single biggest restoration of wetlands in history to our state.
It’s 5:35PM at your local Casey’s. Are you taking the pepperoni slice or the beef slice that’s an hour and a half past its “best by” time? I took the beef bc 1 yum and 2 hate to see anything go to waste.
I handed the microphone to a Republican activist because I believe we have to listen to each other. I shared in my answer to his question the pain of our miscarriage. My opponent edited our personal pain down to a sentence to exploit & misrepresent. That's not leadership, that's politics.
Reset, rotate the crops. Call it what you want; the message is still the same. Iowans want change.
I wasn't able to dip my tires in either river but it's always fun to get some miles in & enjoy the festivities. Thanks RAGBRAI for another great week.
Happy first day of #Hinterland to all who celebrate. Especially those taking the shuttle to Saint Charles. 😉
Hamilton, Greene, and Marshall Counties - check em off the list! That makes 50 town halls since we kicked off this year's Town Hall Tour. 50 more to go.
This past weekend, Team Sand knocked doors in ALL 99 counties. Thank you to everyone who braved the heat & are working hard towards an Iowa that isn't redder or bluer, but better & truer.
Mom and dad did a little DIY to get the sign over the prairie strip.
From investments in water quality monitors & radon detection, to tax credits for conservation programs, to encouraging healthier lifestyles, we have the tools to solve the cancer crisis in Iowa. We just need a governor with the willingness to take it on.
Insiders are shipping more & more jobs to out-of-state companies, leaving our families behind. Iowans deserve a governor that'll stand up for workers and give the next generation more opportunities to reach the American dream.
Social media is dangerous - especially for kids. I think there's a lot we can do and it starts with getting them offline and focused on just being kids.
Study after study has linked social media use among children to higher rates of anxiety, depression, & sleep loss. Iowa kids should be busy learning, playing, and enjoying Iowa’s great outdoors — not being targeted by algorithms designed to keep kids scrolling. https://bit.ly/4gZKlPA

I've always made one simple promise to Iowans: show up and listen. As governor, I propose all statewide elected officials do the same. Here's where I am this week - I'd love if you can join us! #TownHallTour2026 RSVP on our website.
Nothing is more important than keeping our kids safe, and nowadays that means keeping them safe online. That’s why I’m releasing a plan that increases punishments for online predators, bans surveillance advertising, and holds Big Tech companies accountable for profiting off of our kids.
This is about integrity. I don't care who is asking - if it's not the right thing to do, I'm gonna say no. I'm happy to stand up to powerful people in order to do what's right for Iowa families.
We host town halls in every county, every year. And yes, that sometimes means we're in the same place where you play bingo. Public service never stops, even for bingo.
Come out and ask your questions, or catch up on nap time. #TownHallTour2026 Sign up here: robsand.com/townhalltour
