Josh Turek entered politics partly because he was frustrated by the inadequate state of health care in Iowa. Before running for office, he worked for a company that supplied wheelchairs and assistive technology for people with disabilities. He said that seeing conditions while playing basketball in Europe also affected him, and he criticized the fact that 40 million Americans lacked health coverage. In 2022 he ran for the Iowa House of Representatives and won by six votes.
