- David Wayne "Dave" Loebsack (born December 23, 1952) is the Congressional Representative for the 2nd District of Iowa in the United States House of Representatives. He is a member of the Democratic party and the Progressive Caucus. Prior to entering Congress, he was a professor of political science. Loebsack was born in Sioux City, Iowa and was raised in a single parent, lower class household. He graduated from East High School and attended college at Iowa State University. There, Loebsack earned both a bachelor's and a master's degree in political science. After receiving a PhD from the University of California, Davis, Loebsack took a job as a political science professor at Cornell College, a small liberal arts college in Mount Vernon, Iowa. Today, he serves as a Professor Emeritus. Loebsack started the Linn Phoenix group, a fundraising arm of the Linn County Democrats. In 2006 Loebsack defeated 15-term incumbent Jim Leach, a moderate Republican who was one of only a handful of Republican congressmen who had voted against authorization for the use of force in Iraq. Loebsack entered the Democratic primary as a write-in candidate after failing to get the required number of signatures, but won a heated primary. In the general election he took 51% of the vote to Leach's 49%. His was one of 30 seats to be picked up by the Democrats in Congress during the 2006 elections. He was sworn into office on January 4, 2007. He won reelection in 2008, receiving 57% of the vote against medical doctor and political novice Mariannette Miller-Meeks of Ottumwa, who took 39%. Loebsack visited Iraq in February, 2007. He has a step son serving there as part of US military actions in that nation. Loebsack represents a district that was hit hard by the June 2008 Midwest floods. According to his website, the flood damaged his local congressional office and forced its temporary closure. Loebsack has pushed for the federal government to provide full funding for emergency services and for removal of debris left behind by the flooding.
