Krause was raised on a Century Farm near Fenton in Palo Alto County, of which he is still part owner.
He is married and has a blended family with his wife, Vicky. Together, he and his wife operate a small development firm that rents apartments and constructs houses in Fairfield. His veterans’ charity, the Veterans National Recovery Center, has recently been visible to Iowans for working to improve conditions at the Iowa Veterans Home for PTSD veterans, and also for writing and passing a state law dealing with Military Sexual Assault (MSA).
