inflation soared to a 31-year high in October. Now, after thinking about it, it seems President Biden and his allies are sensing inflation may endanger their reckless tax-and-spending agenda. Now, as a result, they have taken to arguing…

as the meatpacking industry became increasingly concentrated in the 1990s, fewer animals were sold through negotiated purchases--or, you could say, you could call that cash purchases or you could call it the spot market. In the 1990s, we…

on September 23, 2021, I inserted for the record an explanation of my intent to hold the Intel Authorization Act because I was concerned with changes made to the whistleblower protections. Specifically, it would have prevented…

the Senate has unanimously passed a bill entitled Protecting America's First Responders Act. I authored this legislation to expand benefits to first responders who are injured in the line of duty. The Public Safety Officers' Benefit…

I would like to expand on my tribute to former Iowa Congressman Neal Smith. As I said yesterday, he was a true public servant, interested in doing right by his State rather than seeking self-aggrandizement. He was a real legislator, not a…

it was a pleasure to work on this legislation with Senator Klobuchar, so we joined forces--it happens to turn out that there are 10 of our Senate colleagues--in a bipartisan way to introduce this legislation that we call the American…

I want to thank Senator Lankford for letting me take 3 minutes to honor an Iowan who recently passed away, a former Member of the House of Representatives. And I think there is only one other United States Senator who would know who I am…

during my time in the Senate, I have always tried to honor the work of whistleblowers. Those who speak up about government wrongdoing ought to be rewarded and not sidelined and punished. But that is exactly what happened in the Indian…

earlier this month, Senator Ernst and I sent a letter to Secretary Mayorkas asking the Secretary to address the devastating cyber attacks conducted on our national agricultural sector. Agriculture is designated as one of the country's 16…

Last week, Attorney General Garland said something very extraordinary. He said he would not withdraw his memo in which he instructed the FBI to get involved with local school boards. Why would the FBI be interested in parents' meetings…

yesterday, in a hearing in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Ranking Member Risch, called out the State Department for its apparent lack of action in helping those Americans and Afghan allies who are still stuck in Afghanistan. It…

I hear from Iowans all the time about the high cost of hearing aids. The $5,000 or $6,000 or even $10,000 costs are often shocking for seniors who are on fixed incomes. Thirty-eight million Americans, and, obviously, most of the time…

Since your confirmation, in less than a year, the Department has moved as far left as it can go. You've politicized the department in ways that shouldn't be, case in point, your infamous school board memo.

Sen. Grassley Accuses A.G. Garland of Politicizing the Department of Justice

I was given a chance to speak five minutes at this event and I took advantage of that to see about what the Biden administration is doing on inflation. Nothing. What they're doing at the border, nothing. How they left Americans in Afghan…

it has been a while since congressional Democrats have used the words ``defund the police.'' That was a very popular phrase in 2021, but after the last election, Democrats learned how truly toxic those words were with ordinary Americans…

a little over 25 years ago, a Democrat President and a Republican Congress came together, to quote former President Clinton, ``end welfare as we know it.'' On a bipartisan basis, Congress passed, and President Clinton signed into law, a…

Thank you, Senator Crapo, for leading this effort to point out what is wrong with this $4.2-trillion reckless tax-and- spending spree. It is a massive government intrusion into the daily lives of American families. Under their vision for…

I hear about rising costs of prescription drugs at nearly every one of my townhall meetings. Three years ago, I began a bipartisan effort to lower prescription drug costs. Following our Finance Committee hearings at that time, we had a…

earlier this month, Attorney General Garland released a memo instructing Department of Justice employees to respond to increasingly passionate school board meetings across the country. That memo talks about working to stop the violence and…

I don't think your questions even appropriate from this standpoint. I would -- I was given the chance to speak five minutes at this event.

I'll stand by the statement I made on January the 7th. And I'll stand by the statement I made on December the 13th that Trump would or that Biden was elected president.

What they're doing at the border, nothing. How they left Americans and Afghan, nothing. And the tax and spending spree that we have.

If I didn`t accept the endorsement of a person that`s got 91 percent of the Republican voters in Iowa, I wouldn`t be too smart. I`m smart enough to accept that endorsement.

Iowa, of course, is the traditional launch pad for the presidential primaries of both political parties.
