It is with deep sadness that the Polk County Republican Party mourns the passing of Iowa State Senator Julian Garrett.
Senator Garrett, a dedicated public servant, lifelong Republican, attorney, farmer, and champion for conservative values in Iowa, passed away on June 8, 2026, at the age of 85 following a battle with prostate cancer.
A Warren County resident who served District 11 with integrity and distinction since 2013, Senator Garrett was known for his principled leadership, strong advocacy for limited government, judicial reform, and support for Iowa’s agricultural communities. His decades of service—including prior time in the Iowa House—left a lasting impact on our state and our Party.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife Nancy, their three sons, and the entire Garrett family during this difficult time. Senator Garrett’s commitment to faith, family, and freedom exemplified the best of Republican ideals. He will be greatly missed.
Rest in peace, Senator Garrett. Thank you for your service. 🇺🇸
