As with all discrimination allegations, Sen. Chuck Grassley's age is a positive reflection of his experience and understanding of the political and financial decisions that affect all Iowans.
As a ranking member of Senate Finance Committee and assignments on other critical committees, his influence and oversight bring many benefits to Iowa.
He thoroughly and promptly replies to all personal calls, letters and e-mails. He worked with President Obama and all senators to approve and enact bills to maintain fair worker, trade and monetary principles with import and export competition.
As with all campaign descriptions and allegations, the facts can be overlooked. Before voting for any candidate or issue, responsible citizens need to research the history and experience that gives each candidate a qualified background to represent Iowa and the nation.
Grassley has worked with the Republican and Democratic administrations to bring justice and equality to the import/export discrepancies that threaten American jobs and revenue. His knowledge and experience are a valuable asset for Iowa and the nation.
