Senator Grassley uses his role in the Senate to bolster our nation’s global standing, defend democracy and religious freedoms and advocate for Iowans’ interests on the world stage.

Grassley is a firm believer in Peace Through Strength. He has pushed administrations of both political parties to fortify our nation’s strategic partnerships and stand up to adversaries. Today, he’s leading the call to stand with Israel, defend Ukraine against Vladimir Putin’s Soviet-style invasion and push back against Chinese aggression.

Since Hamas' chilling October 7, 2023 terror attacks, Grassley has reaffirmed Israel's right to self-defense, denounced antisemitism on U.S. college campuses and combatted Iran-backed terrorism.
As a founding member and co-chair of the Senate Baltic Freedom Caucus, Grassley led efforts to sanction all Russian state-owned enterprises and block Russia's access to international financing.
In response to China's ongoing military aggression and global influence campaigns, Grassley introduced legislation to reinforce American strategic competitiveness. He's also spearheaded efforts to crack down on Chinese precursor chemicals, sever U.S. media ties to Chinese Communist Party propaganda and better secure American data.

Grassley is a stalwart defender of religious freedom around the globe. From advocating for Soviet Jews’ rights in the 1980s, to speaking out against religious persecution in China and Russian-occupied Ukraine, his work to end religious persecution spans decades.
