WASHINGTON - Senator Chuck Grassley will hold town meetings with Iowans in Atlantic, Villisca, Bedford, Clarinda, Percival, Glenwood, Logan, Harlan, Audubon, and Carroll, speak with a service club in Corning and tour a business in Council Bluffs during the third week of the Senate's August recess.
"I look forward to these events and meetings to listen to comments and respond to questions. My town meetings are open to the public, and everyone is welcome. I also appreciate the opportunity to go to service clubs and workplaces for Q and A with Iowans" Grassley said. "Representative government is a two-way street and strengthened by dialogue between elected officials and the people we represent."
Grassley has held at least one meeting with Iowans in every one of the state's 99 counties since 1980, when he was first elected to serve in the U.S. Senate.
Next week, on August 7, 8 and 9, Grassley will hold town meetings and speak to service clubs in Columbus Junction, Donnellson, Burlington, Agency, Bloomfield, Keosauqua, Mount Pleasant, Lockridge, and Cedar Rapids.
The Senate will be in recess from August 6 through September 4. In addition to meetings with Iowans in 21 counties during this recess, Grassley will attend the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines.
Immediately below is more information about the August 20, 21 and 22 schedule. Previously released details of Grassley's schedule on August 7, 8 and 9 also are below. Grassley will be available to answer questions from reporters immediately following each event.
