After a lot of consideration, I've decided to suspend my campaign for Congress. Thank you to all the friends and supporters who believed in this campaign along the way- I'm so grateful. Ready my full statement here:

I’m disgusted and horrified by the killing of another civilian by ICE in Minneapolis. What’s happening there is not making the community or our country safer. It’s time for ICE to leave Minneapolis and for our members of Congress to demand accountability.

On this day in 1973, Roe v Wade established reproductive freedom as the law of the land. It’s important to remember that the rights we fought for back then can be regained if we continue to fight, and not back down. I will always fight for reproductive freedom, no matter what.

She’s right— Zach Nunn and DC politicians are too worried about money and power, not what Iowans need. It’s time for new leadership in Washington. If you want to help us make Iowans a priority again in Congress, go to jenniferkonfrst.com

Today we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his commitment to fighting for equality and justice for all. His legacy serves as a reminder that change is possible when we work for it, and stand for what is right.

IA-03 is a TOSSUP! Washington is catching up to what we’re seeing here on the ground: Zach Nunn is vulnerable and Iowans are ready for change. I’m ready to flip this seat and be the fighter that Iowans deserve— go to secure.actblue.com/donate/jktos... to chip in and help us win.

MercyOne in Ottumwa is closing at the end of next month. This is what happens when politics like Zach Nunn vote to gut our rural healthcare providers. We deserve better.

Back in session at the Iowa House! I can’t wait to continue my work for HD32 and keep delivering back for my district.

A US citizen was killed by ICE in the streets of Minneapolis. We deserve answers. We need an immediate, independent & complete investigation into this tragedy. Today’s actions did nothing to address immigration concerns & instead thrust this community into fear & grief.

As school starts back up for second semester, we need a representative in Congress who will lower costs for all Iowans, including our students. I will always stand up for students across the 3rd district in Congress.

No one wants our Iowa service members to be put at risk in another unconstitutional endless war waged without the consent of Congress or the American people they represent.

Iowans should be able to make their own healthcare decisions. I will always stand up for reproductive freedom in Congress. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/22/u...

Started my Thursday morning off with a roundtable discussion with a few Iowa farmers! We talked tariffs, rural healthcare, economic development, and more. Thanks so much to Karen and Warren Varley for hosting us in Stuart!

I was saddened and heartbroken to hear about yesterday’s terrorist attack in Australia at Bondi Beach. My heart and prayers go out to those affected and their families.

Thank you to everyone who braved the cold and ice to be at our town hall in Johnston today! I will always show up to answer your questions (even if the roads are bad😉)

My thoughts and prayers are with the families of the two Iowa National Guard soldiers killed in Syria today. Their sacrifice and service to our country will not be forgotten.

Iowans deserve a leader in Washington who will face this affordability crisis head on, not stay silent while the president denies the problem.

Honored to be a Candidate for Common Good! It's time for politics to start working for all Iowans again, not just the wealthy and well-connected

I’ll keep showing up, no matter what. This election is too important not to. www.ottumwacourier.com/news/local_n...

Had another great Town Hall today in Winterset! We deserve a representative who shows up and answers tough questions, and that’s exactly what I will keep doing in this race.

Thanks to everyone who came out to our Town Hall today in Ottumwa! If Zach Nunn won’t show up to answer your questions, I will.

Hear from Des Moines City Councilor Josh Mandelbaum about why he's on #TeamKonfrst: "Jennifer brings people together to support solutions to our problems and get results for Iowans. She's the leader that we need in Congress."

Hear from former Iowa Attorney General Bonnie Campbell about why she's on #TeamKonfrst: “Jennifer is exactly the kind of tough, principled fighter we need to beat Zach Nunn. Her work ethic is unmatched and so is her dedication to Iowans

Our nurses need union protections, and I will fight like hell with them until they get them. Proud to stand with Unity Point Nurses and Teamsters today! This fight is about fair pay, patient care, and making sure the nurses who take care of us are safe and supported in their workplaces.

A little snow can’t keep us off the doors for Renee Hardman! If you live in Senate District 16, make sure to get out and vote before or on December 30th!

While doing a Thanksgiving grocery run, all I could think about was how much more expensive things are compared to last year. Zach Nunn promised to bring down our costs in Iowa, but we’re not seeing it. We need to send someone to Congress who’s focused on making life more affordable for Iowans.

Happy birthday to my mama, Penni! Hilarious, badass, independent, honest, authentic, caring, and passionate. My mom taught me so much about who I want to be and who I want to fight for. I carry her example with me every day.

It doesn't have to be like this. We need new leadership who's willing to stand up in DC and turn the page. That's why I'm running for Congress. www.desmoinesregister.com/story/money/...

Zach Nunn likes to talk a big game, but his votes don't back it up. If he wanted to protect the ACA, he could have voted to in January. Watch what he does, not what he says.

Watch what Congressman Nunn does, not what he says. If he truly cared about lower costs for Iowans, he would have voted to fully extend the ACA in January to prevent premiums from doubling. And he wouldn’t have voted to gut Medicaid and kick over 100,000 Iowans off their health insurance.

I joined the IDP for their food drive this weekend! When politicians like Zach Nunn leave Iowans in need behind in DC, our community shows up.

An Iowa giant who was a force for good in our community- Bill Knapp will be dearly missed. My condolences and thoughts go to his wife, Susan, and the whole Knapp family. www.businessrecord.com/knapp-proper...

BREAKING: a brand new poll shows us BEATING Zach Nunn! Iowans are ready for better than Zach Nunn’s broken promises. But we can’t flip this seat without you. Join the campaign we’re building and grow our lead on Zach Nunn: secure.actblue.com/donate/jgkpo...

Tens of thousands of Iowans rely on the Affordable Care Act for their healthcare, and Zach Nunn voted to raise their healthcare premiums. www.politico.com/live-updates...

Happy Veterans Day 🇺🇸 Thank you to all those who have served our country and put their lives on the line to defend our values. As the daughter of two Air Force veterans, I have learned firsthand the courage it takes to serve, and I’m so proud of their service to our country.

I mean, seriously? Zach Nunn was partying it up in Mar-a-Lago while the government is shut down, government workers are going without paychecks, SNAP is on hold, and tens of thousands of Iowans are facing their healthcare premiums doubling or tripling.

We need more than promises— we need to protect healthcare for the 125,000+ Iowans at risk of seeing their healthcare premiums skyrocket when they’re already struggling to afford them. Iowans deserve fighters who won’t compromise on what they need. fortune.com/2025/11/09/g...

Zach Nunn made a lot of promises during his campaigns, and he hasn't delivered. Iowans deserve better than a Congressman who says one thing, and does another.

There is so much that gives me hope about this district. When our communities come together, great things can happen all over this state. Make sure to stop by Hedgie's the next time you are in Bedford! Check out the rest of my interview on Cornhole Champions here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tice...

263,000 Iowans are at risk of losing food assistance for November because of Zach Nunn’s inaction. That’s why I signed onto this letter with my colleagues urging Governor Reynolds to take immediate action to help Iowa families. It’s time to stop playing politics with people’s lives.

Happy Halloween IA-03! In the Des Moines-area tradition of telling jokes while trick-or-treating, I hope you enjoy this one about Congressman Nunn and his spooky disappearing act! Nothing scarier than a Congressman that disappears on his constituents.

I’m honored to have the endorsement and support of CWA Local 7102. Unions like CWA helped build my family’s foundation– I know they need a partner in Congress who is willing to stand up for them every day and is ready to make working people the core of their campaign.

Great to be back in Adams County yesterday for the Southwest Iowa IDP Hall of Fame and Candidate Forum! When I’m your congresswoman, you can count on me to make rural Iowa a priority.

Big thanks to United Steelworkers Local 310 for having us out to their Trunk or Treat to kick off Halloween week!

Perry Area Democrats are fired up and ready for change in Washington! Thank you for having me out to speak last night!

The impacts of this shutdown are real— government employees are going without pay checks and hungry families might now going to have go without SNAP benefits. And Zach Nunn’s response is typical DC: all talk, no action.

Congratulations to Renee Hardman, Democratic nominee for Iowa Senate District 16. Renee's experience as a city councilor and community leader will serve her well, and I look forward to calling her my Senator!

Iowa is at risk of a recession, and brain drain is one of the main reasons why. We need to make Iowa a welcoming place, and a place our kids want to stay. That is what I will fight for in DC.

We are now two weeks into the Government Shutdown with no end in sight, and Zach Nunn is still hiding from his constituents. Working Iowans deserve a representative who will work for them, not billionaires.

On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we celebrate the Indigenous communities that came before us in Iowa, and those who are still here today. We also recognize the struggles that Iowa’s Indigenous communities have faced, and honor their strength and resilience.
