OTTUMWA — Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (IA-02) announced the completion of her fourth 24-county tour, having now visited all 24 of the Second District’s counties at least four times since being sworn in on Jan. 3 of this year.

Miller-Meeks said via press release, “It has been an honor to visit cities and towns across the Second District. From Newton to Fort Madison and DeWitt to Leon, the Second District is full of amazing families, businesses, and communities, all proud to be in Iowa.
