Boettger served on several committees in the Iowa Senate: the Agriculture committee; the Appropriations committee; the Human Resources committee; the Judiciary committee; the Rules and Administration committee; and the Education committee, where she was the ranking member. She also served as the ranking member of the Education Appropriations Subcommittee.

After Regent Nancy Boettger warned Iowa State University in July 2022 to keep free speech in mind while teaching the “politically charged topic” of climate science, she gave ISU a pair of books from the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change — which denies the notion of human-induced climate change.

Boettger was appointed to the Board of Regents, State of Iowa on March 1, 2017, by Governor Terry Branstad. Her term expires April 30, 2023.[2]
