“He harvests votes like corn, by the bushel.”

“Throughout his long tenure, he has been a consistently effective watchdog on behalf of taxpayers and whistleblowers. Grassley’s commitment to constituent service is well known. Even after six Senate terms, Grassley’s team still sweats the small stuff on behalf of Iowans who need help.”

“His support for renewable energy, including tax credits for wind energy he first championed, have had a large and important impact on Iowa’s economic landscape. Grassley has been a staunch and effective defender of Iowa agriculture, although we call on him to become more forward-thinking on efforts to blunt the environmental effects of farming.”

“His energy, enthusiasm and grasp of important issues clearly remain intact. He’s up to the job, and Iowans should return him to the Senate.”

“Some politicians go to Washington and forget the folks back home except when elections are near. Sen. Charles Grassley, Iowa’s senior United States senator, isn’t one of them. He has a well-deserved reputation as a public servant who keeps in close touch with his constituents. His annual visits to each of the Hawkeye State’s 99 counties have institutionalized an excellent opportunity for communication between the Republican senator and voters. Grassley’s listening tours are a superb example of how officeholders should relate to the people they represent.”

“Grassley is a vital voice in the nation’s capital for rural America. His farming roots provide a perspective in Washington that helps ensure legislation takes into account the unique needs of farmers and those communities whose economic well-being depend on agriculture.”

“A case in point is Grassley’s aggressive promotion of the biofuels and renewable energy industries so critical to Iowa’s economic future.”

“Grassley recognizes the significance of renewable fuels in the Iowa economy.”

“Grassley is a powerful voice for conservative values and common sense.”

“At a time when the news is filled with tales of governmental excesses and corruption, Grassley is a tireless opponent of waste. He has a diligence in watching over taxpayer dollars that one wishes more public officials would emulate.”

“Grassley understands that much of the money federal agencies spend is an aggregation of the tax dollars paid by average Americans of modest means. He understands that people work hard to earn that money and have a right to expect that it will be spent with wisdom and frugality.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
