Attorney General Brenna Bird has announced the completion of her visits to all 99 counties in Iowa. During these visits, she engaged with residents across the state through roundtable discussions, meetings with law enforcement and prosecutors, business tours, and community conversations.

“Hearing about the issues affecting Iowans is necessary to represent them effectively,” said Attorney General Bird. “This year, I’ve met with law enforcement officers, farmers, county attorneys, medical professionals, business owners, and other local leaders. Based on these conversations, we’ve made improvements to our victim services, advocated for higher penalties for assaults on first responders, worked to protect kids online, battled scammers, fought for farmers, and continually protected the rights of Iowans. I look forward to all we will accomplish in 2026.”

Bird concluded her statewide tour in Guthrie County at Helena Agri-Enterprises in Guthrie Center. There she spoke with Guthrie County Attorney Dana Minteer and a representative from Iowa Corn about current challenges facing farmers and agricultural suppliers.
