Rocky Damiano

Rocky Damiano is a Republican candidate running for Iowa State Senate District 27 in the 2026 election, officially filing his paperwork with the Iowa Secretary of State's office. He pledges to be a "hard-charging advocate for everyday Iowans," particularly those in District 27, believing their concerns have previously fallen on deaf ears. Damiano is a staunch opponent of eminent domain abuse, promising to tirelessly fight for legislation that protects landowners over special interests, especially in the context of projects like the CO2 pipeline. He has publicly committed to supporting congressional term limits by signing a pledge with U.S. Term Limits, advocating for an Article V convention to enact such limits. He states his motivation for running is to defend citizens and ensure a more responsive legislature.
