A group of Iowa legislators who are under the age of 40 have formed an “Iowa Future Caucus” to show bipartisan cooperation is possible. Twenty-nine-year-old State Senator Zach Wahls– a Democrat from Coralville — is one of the group’s co-chairs.

Thirty-nine-year-old State Senator Zach Nunn — a Republican from Bondurant — is another co-chair of the group.

Six members of the Iowa Senate and at least a dozen members of the Iowa House are under the age of 40.
