Sen. Chuck Grassley visited Elkader on April 11, as part of his 99-county tour. Grassley toured the new Earthmoving Legacy Center during the stop, before holding a Q&A session with employees from Mobile Track Solutions and C.J. Moyna & Sons. 

 

During the Q&A, Grassley addressed Title 42, student loan debt, inflation, school vouchers, transitioning to electric vehicles, food insecurity, rising fuel prices and the political polarization of the United States Senate. He also spoke about how “family is the foundation of our society.” 

 

Grassley had high praise for the employees, their depth of knowledge about political issues and their manufacturing ingenuity, while highlighting Midwestern humility. 

 

“How come we got all this great stuff in Iowa and we don’t know about it? It’s because Iowans don’t brag. You got to come here to see it,” Grassley remarked.
