WASHINGTON - During an upcoming Senate break, Senator Chuck Grassley will meet with Iowans in Victor, Clinton, Muscatine, West Branch, Eldridge and Maquoketa.
Grassley will speak at the Memorial Day service hosted by the Victor American Legion on Monday, May 28.
On Tuesday, he will tour LyondellBasell and meet with employees in Clinton, address the Muscatine Kiwanis luncheon, tour Acciona Windpower and meet with employees in West Branch, and hold town meetings for residents of Scott and Jackson counties.
"Representative government is a two-way street and depends on dialogue between elected officials and the people we represent," Grassley said. "I look forward to the events and meetings planned later this month to listen to comments and respond to questions. I like to have town meetings, and I also appreciate the opportunity to go to workplaces to talk with people who couldn't otherwise get to a town meeting."
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.
