ICYMI: Bohannan, James, and Trone Garriott’s Democrat Party Blocks Bill to Lower

September 18, 2026

This week, Christina Bohannan, Lindsay James, and Sarah Trone Garriott’s Democrat Party blocked the Ratepayer Protection Act, siding with the Green New Deal agenda that’s already driven up utility costs for hardworking families.

While Mariannette Miller-Meeks, Joe Mitchell, and Zach Nunn’s party took action to protect Iowans from rising energy prices, Bohannan, James, and Trone Garriott’s party chose to defend the same costly policies driving those prices higher.

“Christina Bohannan, Lindsay James, and Sarah Trone Garriott’s Democrat colleagues are choosing the Green New Deal over lower energy costs for hardworking families. While Republicans fight to protect Americans from rising utility bills, Democrats keep defending the policies driving those bills higher.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Emily Tuttle
