GRASSLEY IS THE LONGEST SERVING U.S. SENATOR IN IOWA HISTORY
His seniority, experience and respect earned over years of service ensures Iowans have an influential seat at the policymaking table.
Grassley was first elected to the Iowa state legislature in 1958 and served there until Iowans sent him to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1974. In 1980, Grassley was elected to the U.S. Senate, where he’s developed a reputation for bipartisanship and pragmatism. This approach to legislating consistently earns Grassley high marks as one of the Senate’s most effective and collaborative lawmakers. In each post, serving Iowans has always been Grassley’s guiding light and primary objective.
