WASHINGTON - Senator Chuck Grassley will hold three town meetings in Eastern Iowa during the week of June 29 as part of his annual 99-county tour.
Grassley has held a meeting in each of Iowa's 99 counties at least once every year since he was first elected to the U.S. Senate.On July 1 and July 2 Grassley will be in Washington, Wilton, and Vinton.
