Senator Chuck Grassley met with participants of the American Legion Auxiliary Girls and Boys Nation in his Washington, D.C. office this past week. The group discussed nominations to America’s military academies and the Senator’s #cornwatch series on the X social media platform.

The group included students from Cedar Rapids, Johnston, Iowa City and Waukon, including Katie Regan, who will be a senior at Waukon High School this fall and is the daughter of Maury and Stacey Regan of Waukon.

“As a proud Boys State alum, I enjoyed meeting with members of the American Legion Auxiliary Girls and Boys Nation,” Grassley said. “I always appreciate young Iowans stopping by to talk about what’s important to them. I encourage all Iowans planning a trip to Washington, D.C. to contact my office for assistance booking tours, or to come by and say ‘hello’.”
