Winning the Message War

Progress Iowa is the leading communications hub for our state’s progressive community. We conduct polling, use social media analysis, and media tracking to develop winning messages based on research. And we work every day to ensure the message guidance we create reaches as many Iowans as possible.

We believe everyone who is willing to use their voice for progressive change should have the resources to do so. Progress Iowa’s message guides are publicly available and listed below. Winning the Message War: A Handbook for Iowa Progressives is also available online. We hope you will put the handbook and our guides to use and share them widely.
