According to a new poll, fewer than a third of Iowa voters would vote for Chuck Grassley if elections were held today. For working Iowan families who have been trying to make ends meet, this doesn’t sound surprising at all.
Iowans have suffered through 4 decades of Chuck Grassley’s ineffectual leadership, watching him ignore the needs of working families in favor of millions in corporate PAC money -- and they’re ready for change.
In Iowa and around the country, we’re seeing the same issues play out:
Local farmers supporting their families have struggled to make a profit -- while Big Ag corporations stack the deck against them with policy manipulation and lobbying.
Workers haven’t seen their wages increase in decades, even as the costs of living continue to skyrocket.
Folks are going into massive debt over health care bills that they simply can’t afford.
