Media interviewBird stated the following in an interview with Des Moines Register:What would be your top issue if elected?One of the main reasons I ran for attorney general was to do more to protect victims, which is why when I took office I did a complete audit of our Victim Assistance section. We now have a working protective order system, a Sexual Assault Forensic Nurse coordinator and a victim restitution payment portal, among many other important upgrades. I prioritize law enforcement so they have a true partner in the attorney general’s office. We have delivered on those promises. My other top priorities have been to uphold the rule of law and Constitution and get criminals off the streets to protect Iowans.As attorney general, what actions would you take to protect Iowans from fraud, deception and unfair business practices?Since taking office, we have made it a priority to protect Iowans from scams and fraud and build on the consumer protection efforts in the AG’s office. We fight to protect kids online. I have sued big tech companies like Roblox, Meta and TikTok because they say their platforms are safe for our children, but they aren’t. We stop the scammers and con artists who try everyday to trick Iowans out of their hard-earned money. I have fought for Iowa farmers by opposing radical environmental policies from states like California and Massachusetts that want to tell Iowa farmers how to farm.What changes would you make to the way the Attorney General’s Office handles criminal prosecutions?It is extremely important to me that we get criminals off the street and protect Iowans. Since I have been the attorney general, we have secured more funding to hire more criminal prosecutors. These prosecutors help local county attorneys handle complex cases such as murder, rape and sex crimes against children for convictions. Iowa needed a Cold Case Unit — we have over 400 unsolved homicides and missing person cases. I ran on that promise, and I am grateful that we launched the Cold Case Unit to partner with local law enforcement to solve more cases. No one should get away with murder.Under what circumstances do you believe the attorney general should challenge federal laws, rules or executive actions in court?It is the role of the attorney general to protect the constitutional rights of Iowa and Iowans from federal overreach. I have filed lawsuits and briefs challenging unconstitutional and illegal policies on gun rights, the right to life, parent’s rights, women’s rights, immigration, the environment, farming practices and much more.— Brenna Bird in Des Moines Register interview (August 10, 2026)Note: This text is quoted verbatim from the original source.
