The guy has been in D.C. for 47 years. And he has forgotten where he comes from and who he is supposed to fight for.

This guy walks around like he`s Mister Rule America but we`ve lost 30,000 family farms in the state since he`s been in office.

It is about having somebody who is going to step up for the health care, who is going to fight for lower prescription drug prices, who is actually going to have the backs of their family again.
Chuck Grassley has gone to Washington, D.C. for nearly five decades and has become the Washington politician that Donald Trump has told all his supporters to hate over these years.
They are afraid. They know they`re vulnerable and they`re selling essentially democracy down the line because of the fact that they cannot stand up to Donald Trump.
This guy, who told his supporters on January 6th to march to the Capitol while they were wearing Trump hats, Trump T-shirts, and they beat our Capitol police officers with Trump flags and American flags. And Chuck Grassley saw that. He saw…
I can tell you folks are happy that we got a president who actually did what he said he was going to do. I mean, we heard Trump go around our state for years and talk about an infrastructure package - never did it. And here, Joe Biden…
You do not get to say those words on the floor of the U.S. Senate, defend a president who was trying to stay in office after he lost an election and expect to get reelected in a state like Iowa.
We will defeat him. Because again, you do not get to talk about democracy in the way that he has, you do not get to subvert it the way that he has, and at the same time, decide that you’re just going to keep getting reelected.
He’s not the guy I remember watching growing up. I grew up in Iowa, where we had Democrat, Tom Harkin, we had Republican Chuck Grassley, and they’d go off to Washington and into the U.S. Senate. And you know, I wouldn’t agree with what…
I'm tired of having politicians in D.C. who just read about working families, study them, but haven't actually listed it.
this election is so much bigger than Senator Grassley. Again, it's about our democracy. It's about making sure that we have folks who believe in the truth and are going to stand up and defend it.
they don't get to keep lying, they don't get to keep pushing misinformation in our state and our country and not have us push back.
It's politicians like Senator Grassley and Mitch McConnell who should know better but are so obsessed with power that they oppose anything that moves us forward. Since the Capitol was attacked, they've turned their backs on democracy and…
We saw Senator Mitt Romney stand up when there was misinformation. We saw Liz Cheney do the same.
Because Iowa is my home and this is our country, and both are worth fighting for. There's so much work to do both for Iowa and our democracy. When 1/6 happened, it changed America and it changed me.
I thank Chairwoman Velazquez for yielding. It is an honor to get to serve on the Committee on Small Business with her, and I appreciate her support as we dive into these issues that are obviously of big importance to me and to my State of…
I have an amendment at the desk. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 749, line 7, after the dollar amount, insert ``(increased by $12,000,000)''. Page 780, line 11…
Communities like mine, quite frankly, were left behind because we have the highest concentration of community-based financial institutions.
I thank the gentleman for yielding. I am proud to stand here today as a Congresswoman from Iowa's First Congressional District, but even more proud to stand here today as a daughter of a retired union pipe fitter/welder. And you see I…
I thank Chairman DeFazio for yielding. It is an honor to serve on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and bring the needs of rural America to the committee and be able to work on those needs in a bipartisan way. I am proud to…
As the Congresswoman from Iowa's 1st Congressional District, I know firsthand that for our small businesses, the ability to access new markets and export goods promotes economic successes at home and in our communities.
my biggest concern is, obviously, the health and safety of my constituents and Iowans and folks across the country.
It is an honor to represent the great State of Iowa and the First Congressional District. We have been getting a lot of great things done here in the House, working across the aisle and moving a lot of bipartisan bills forward since I got…
I was shocked to see the Trump Administration decided to slash this budget and funding for fiscal year 2021.
