As a relative newcomer to the field of politics, Bret Richards of Irwin is working hard to meet and speak with as many Iowans as he can in preparation for his upcoming run against Steve King for the candidacy over Iowa’s 4th District in the U.S. House of Representatives.
 
On Thursday morning, Richards made a stop in Grundy Center, where he chatted with locals over coffee at the Natural Grind.
 
Richards, a born and raised Iowan, is an Army veteran and former businessman who says he plans to use his life experience to get things done in the House.
 
“A big thing for me is that career politicians are a huge problem in this nation,” he said. “We need people who put their country first, not their career. When I talk to Iowans, I here the same thing: they want someone who’s not in it for a career. They want someone who can find a way to get things done that matter.”
 
Richards says through his experience in the U.S. army and as a business owner, he has that proven leadership and ability to work with others to find solutions that Iowans need.
