Steven Arnold “Steve” King is a Congressman who has been serving as the U.S. Representative for Iowa’s 4th congressional district since 2003. He was a businessman before he entered the world of politics and had built an earth moving company, King Construction, starting with just one bulldozer. He was a very hardworking man with astute business acumen which enabled him to build a highly successful business. Because of the nature of his business he was closely involved with the Iowa Land Improvement Contractors' Association and was disillusioned with the way government officials behaved whenever he had to interact with them on business issues. This kindled in him an interest in public policy and governance. He forayed into politics and served in the Iowa Senate for six years and was also a member of the Appropriations Committee, Judiciary Committee and the Commerce Committee. His experience as a businessman proved to be very beneficial in his political career as he could review policies from the perspective of not just a politician, but also from the angle of the common man. The outspoken politician is a social conservative and a strong pro-life advocate who believes in the sanctity of the life of the unborn. He is also a frequent contributor to several newspapers, magazines and radio.
