Sen. Grassley to hold 13 meetings in North-central, Northeast Iowa

WASHINGTON – Senator Chuck Grassley will participate in 13 meetings in Iowa during the week of Feb. 17 as part of his annual 99-county tour.

Grassley has visited each of Iowa’s 99 counties at least once every year for a meeting since he was first elected to the U.S. Senate.

On Feb. 17, 18 and 19, Grassley will be in Oelwein, Calmar, Cresco, Eagle Grove, Forest City, Burt, Garner, Northwood, Williams, Fort Dodge, Hampton, Osage and Mason City.

“Representative government is a two-way street.  It’s strengthened by dialogue between elected officials and the people we represent,” Grassley said.  “I appreciate the opportunity to hold town meetings, go directly to Iowans in their workplaces, and answer questions and take comments where people are gathered for civic group meetings.  I also enjoy meeting with high school students as they study current affairs and government.”

Grassley will be available for 15 minutes after each meeting to answer questions from local reporters, except for the meeting in Calmar, where he will be available for 15 minutes before the meeting.  Grassley’s town meetings in Cresco and Northwood are open to the public and media.  Members of the media should contact individual organizations about attending other events, as Grassley is a guest of the organizations.
