WASHINGTON – U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa will begin holding meetings with Iowans in every county this year starting on Tuesday, January 22 in Worth County and Thursday, January 24 in Franklin County.
These meetings will kick off Grassley’s 39th year of holding meetings in every one of Iowa’s 99 counties. Grassley has held at least one meeting with Iowans in every county, every year since he was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 1980.
“Representative government is a two-way street, and it requires continued dialogue between elected officials and the people they represent,” Grassley said. “I look forward to events and meetings where I have the opportunity to listen to Iowans’ comments and concerns and respond directly to their questions.”
Grassley will be available for 15 minutes after each meeting to answer questions from local reporters. These town meetings are open to the public and media.
Due to the partial government shutdown, if a vote in the Senate is scheduled, Grassley will return to the Senate, as he has not missed a vote in more than 25 years. If a change in his schedule occurs, you will be notified as soon as possible.
