Representative Samantha Fett

Dear Friends and Neighbors of House District 22,

I’m sharing this not just as your representative, but as a fellow Iowan who stands with you—rooted in shared values and a deep commitment to the state we call home.

Over the past year, I’ve fought tirelessly to protect parental rights, defend our children from harmful ideologies, and ensure that Iowa law reflects the convictions we hold dear—faith, family, and freedom. Together, we’ve made meaningful progress—but the fight is far from over.

I’m announcing my run for re-election to the Iowa House in 2026—because Iowa’s families deserve leaders who will stand firm, speak truth, and never compromise on what matters most.

I remain committed to protecting educational freedom and defending the rights of parents to guide their children’s upbringing. I will continue working to ensure that every Iowa student is safe, supported, and surrounded by learning environments that reflect truth, excellence, and opportunity. The choices we make today will shape the next generation and I will not back down.

I will continue to stand against radical agendas that seek to erase biological reality, undermine our faith, and silence conviction. Our children deserve protection, and Iowans deserve leaders who act with courage. I remain a steadfast constitutionalist, with a clear focus on defending the Second Amendment. My commitment to preserving individual liberty and protecting the rights enshrined in our founding documents continues to guide my policy recommendations.

I will keep fighting for our rural communities, small businesses, and the hardworking families who make Iowa strong. Our values are not negotiable—and our voice must be heard. We work hard and more money needs to stay in our pockets!

I am asking for your support in this re-election campaign for Iowa House District 22—This campaign is about standing for truth. It’s about ensuring that the next generation inherits a state that honors God, protects liberty, and empowers families.

Let’s continue what we started—with courage, conviction, and clarity!

Thank you!  Rep. Samantha Fett

VOTE November 2, 2026!

As Carlisle residents, my husband Josh and I raised two daughters, both graduating from Carlisle High school.  Josh was born and raised in western Iowa, and I am originally from the Chicago suburbs and came to Iowa to attend college.  After meeting my husband, I fell in love with Iowa and rural living, and we decided to make Iowa the place to raise our family.  We have lived in Carlisle the past 13 years and previously lived in Des Moines for 10 years.  Josh is an electrician, and I run a marketing firm with previous background in the media industry.  We also enjoy our hobby farm outside of city limits raising chickens.  As active members in our local church, Holy Cross Lutheran Church, we have a passion for supporting youth in our community.

I'm a mom and became active in politics after serving as a school board member in the Carlisle school district, standing for parents when it mattered--It's part of my purpose, protecting our parental rights.

This experience motivated me to be more involved in the legislative process. I was able to experience on a grassroots level that working with legislators is how we can create good policy. Let's focus on the strength of our families and the skills of our children to build a better future in Iowa.

What to expect from your State Representative

What you can expect from me is bold leadership, transparency, and access. I represent and serve you, so I can in turn provide guidance and policy that expands your freedoms and opportunities. I have invested time in this community, and I am proud to be serving in the Iowa House!

Providing good policy governance is the goal, so let's get it done together. 

Watch a recent interview on the "Steve Deace" show, summarizing what it takes to be a bold leader and updates on the first session in the Iowa House.

Simply put, I love America and I want to preserve liberty and freedom in Iowa--- It's why decided to run for office.

Representing House District 22 is an honor because it means problem solving on your behalf. During my grassroots efforts in advocating with legislators, it became clear to me that that process works the best when we are involved.

Government doesn't work well without us, so it's my mission to involve all of you to assist in making the lives of Iowans better!
