I just finished the first leg of my town hall meetings this week while the Senate is on recess for Memorial Day. Today I was able to visit students at Oak Street Middle School in Burlington, visit with employees and tour Roquette America in Keokuk and hold my Van Buren County town hall meeting in Keosauqua. I will continue on with more town hall meetings the rest of this week. I enjoy listening to folks in Iowa and taking their concerns to Washington. That’s what representative government is all about.
