WASHINGTON DC (January 6, 2020) — Prepared floor remarks by Senator Charles "Chuck" Grassley on looking ahead to the New Year:

I want to wish all Iowans a happy New Year.

As 2020 begins, I’m focused on passing the United States-Mexico-Canada trade agreement.

I’m leading a meeting of the Finance Committee tomorrow to report out the bill, so a Senate floor vote is imminent.

I’m continuing to work in a bipartisan way to lower the cost of prescription drugs with the Grassley-Wyden Prescription Drug Pricing Reduction Act.

And in the coming weeks, I will begin my 40th annual 99 county meetings to continue to hear what’s on the minds of Iowans so I can better serve them in the United States Senate.

I look forward to remaining in touch with Iowans as the new decade begins.
