VIDEO: Senator Grassley Visits Siouxland
MAPLETON, IA –
Iowa’s senior US Senator is back in the state while Congress takes its Columbus Day recess.
Chuck Grassley held town hall meetings Monday in Storm Lake, Ida Grove, and Mapleton.
A couple dozen people met with the Senator in Mapleton talking about topics ranging from healthcare to defunding Planned Parenthood.
Senator Grassley says these visits are important for government to remain a two-way street.
“It’s necessary for me to understand what’s on my Iowans minds so I can represent them,” said Senator Chuck Grassley, (R) Iowa. “It’s the best way to do it and I hope in the process of my doing it, it encourages them to keep it up when they can’t see me face to face.”
Grassley will be in Sioux City Monday night appearing with Congressman Steve King and Texas Senator Ted Cruz at a rally on the Western Iowa Tech campus at 7 p.m.
