Iowa’s U.S. Sen. Charles Grassley has scheduled a town hall meeting in Belle Plaine next month. The senator will be at the Belle Plaine Community Center from 9:15-10:15 a.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 13, according to his web site.
The Belle Plaine appearance is one in a series of stops Grassley will be making around the state during January. On Tuesday, Jan. 12, he is slated to appear in DeWitt, Clarence, Williamsburg and Grinnell. His stop in Belle Plaine will be preceded by an early morning stop in Traer.
The senator made a similar stop in the winter a couple of years ago, when the area was hit by the severe ice storm. A power outage prevented him from conducting his meeting that day, but he stayed and spoke with local reporters for several minutes.
