US Senator Chuck Grassley visited Mahaska County yesterday and took a tour of the facilities at MCG before speaking with the press about some of his legislative priorities.

Grassley initially discussed a bill that he has co-sponsored that would regulate the use of the social media platform TikTok.

He also discussed the Farm Bill and gave 4 main areas of focus that he would like to see included in the bill.

And when asked about his main takeaways from the brief tour he was on, he reiterated some of the previous points and shared some of the difficulties that business owners he visited were having.

The US Senate is set to be back in session starting next week.
