WASHINGTON - Senator Chuck Grassley will meet with Iowans in Columbus Junction, Donnellson, Burlington, Agency, Bloomfield, Keosauqua, Mount Pleasant, Lockridge, and Cedar Rapids during the first 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 for Q and A," 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.
Below is more information about the August 7, 8 and 9 schedule. Grassley will be available to answer questions from reporters following each event.
