Senator Grassley’s tagline is: “the Senator we need, is the Senator we’ve got.” We the People know that our country is headed in the wrong direction, and the truth is: the Senator we have, is the Senator who got us here. 

Chuck Grassley has:

Voted with Biden’s agenda 54% of the time. 

Received an F rating from the Conservative Review. 

Voted to advance a spending bill that only gives Iowans .00416% of the total money in exchange for the average Iowan getting robbed 11.13% of every dollar they earn. 

Voted for a massive $1.5 trillion dollar spending bill in a time when gas, groceries, and healthcare have skyrocketed.

Voted for legislation that led to medical tyranny during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Voted to confirm disastrous Democrat cabinet picks, all the way back to Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State. 

Caved to Democrat priorities and voted for massive government spending that excluded crucial needs like border funding.

Vowed he will NOT repeal ObamaCare, even though the cost of health insurance has now doubled for working Americans, 60% of Medicare recipients struggle to pay for healthcare expenses, and premium increases could lead to loss of coverage for many Iowans. (Blue Cross Blue Shield is Chuck Grassley’s #1 donor in recent years, and has profited significantly from ObamaCare. Grassley’s votes on healthcare serve his major donors, not Iowans.)

I could go on, but here is the bottom line: 

There may be political elites & massive corporations who are satisfied with Grassley’s votes. But what this race boils down to is that I am not satisfied with them, and neither are many of Grassley’s constituents. You see, before I was running against Grassley, I was his constituent. And I saw him voting in a way that did not represent my values or protect my freedoms. That is not the representation I want in Washington. I don’t want someone who runs as a Conservative and then votes like a Democrat. As Grassley’s constituent, I want another option; and I want Iowans who share my values to have another option as well.

I understand that the way Grassley plays politics in Washington is how it’s been done for a long time, but how well has that worked out for our country? It’s time to elect new leadership that will fight for the America we want.

I am a conservative. I am a freedom fighter who knows how to get things done. And I have the legislative record to back that up. Iowans have a choice this June. You can learn more about my policy stances on my website, Carlinforussenate.com. If my values align with yours, I ask that you make your voice heard, and vote Jim Carlin for U.S Senate, in the Republican Primary, June 7th.
