“Rod Blum is the clear choice in this race,” said Carson. “Rod is an authentic, common sense leader — not a career politician — with the real world experience that we need in Congress.

I am proud to do everything I can to support Rod’s campaign.”
“I am humbled to have Dr. Carson’s help in this race,” added Blum. “He shares my passion to secure America’s future by returning to common sense principles like personal responsibility, upward mobility, and individual choice; and I look forward to welcoming him to Eastern Iowa.”
