Tell Senator Grassley to work on saving people and Democracy First!
To: Sen. Grassley
From: A constituent in Des Moines, IA
October 28
While you chase a case of commercial fraud involving a wedding website, the country you serve is being starved and bullied into submission. Families in Iowa and across America are lining up at food banks, skipping meals, and wondering how long they can keep the lights on — yet your focus is on The Knot.
First things first: feed the people and stop Trump’s march toward a police state. Hunger is being used as a weapon to control and divide, and silence from those in power enables it. You have the platform and the seniority to demand emergency action — to restore food assistance, protect civil rights, and stand against authoritarianism. Instead, your energy is spent chasing a minor fraud case while millions struggle to survive.
Every empty stomach is a policy choice. Every silenced protest, every family cut off from aid, every whistleblower punished is another step toward tyranny. If you truly believe in the Constitution, defend the people it was written for — not corporations, not party politics.
Feed your state. Feed your country. Then we can talk about wedding websites.
