their future and the future of their American dream. As a senator, military veteran and doctor, I have spent my entire life fighting to protect Iowa values. But getting here wasn\u2019t so easy.<\/p><p>My father was a Master Sergeant in the United States Air Force who often worked extra jobs, sometimes two or three, to support our family. My mother, who got her GED, also worked and raised our family.<\/p><p>I originally dreamed of becoming a teacher because I loved school and wanted to share my passion for learning with others. However, in 10th grade, my younger brother and I were severely burned in a kitchen fire. While at the hospital, I was treated by a physical therapist who went out of her way to make sure I got better. This woman\u2019s kindness and selflessness inspired me to become a doctor so I could help others.<\/p><p>I was the fourth of eight children with parents who did not have the means to pay for college. I left home at 16 and enrolled in community college. I later enlisted in the US Army at 18, going from private to lt. colonel after serving a total of 24 years. I went into private practice in Ottumwa in 1997 and still reside there with my husband, Curt. We have two grown children, Jonathon and Taylor. In 2018, the voters of Senate District 41 elected me to fight for them in the Iowa State Senate.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cc35121\" data-id=\"cc35121\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-09021a3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"09021a3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"470\" height=\"663\" src=\"https:\/\/drmillermeeks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/imgpsh_fullsize_anim.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-160\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drmillermeeks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/imgpsh_fullsize_anim.png 470w, https:\/\/drmillermeeks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/imgpsh_fullsize_anim-213x300.png 213w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 470px) 100vw, 470px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-bbe376d elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"bbe376d\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-6bfaca5\" data-id=\"6bfaca5\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e28e7a6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e28e7a6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"634\" height=\"354\" src=\"https:\/\/drmillermeeks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/imgpsh_fullsize_anim-2.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-164\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drmillermeeks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/imgpsh_fullsize_anim-2.png 634w, https:\/\/drmillermeeks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/imgpsh_fullsize_anim-2-300x168.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 634px) 100vw, 634px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iowa Conservative I\u2019m Mariannette Miller-Meeks and I\u2019m running for Congress in Iowa\u2019s First Congressional District.
