Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) has attacked Progress Iowa and other progressive organizations to raise money for his campaign committee.

After months of pressure as a result of a grassroots campaign, Senator Grassley is finally taking action — not by moving forward with hearings for Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland — but by attacking Progress Iowa and a number of other progressive groups who have been organizing on the ground to make sure the Senator does his job as outlined in the Constitution.

Senator Grassley has been engaging in unprecedented obstruction of President Obama's Supreme Court nominee, refusing to even hold a hearing in the Judiciary Committee, where he serves as Chair.

Grassley has used a number of excuses for his obstruction, that have been referred to as “mostly nonsense” by local media. All of his current excuses contradict the 27 times in the past where he has called for an up-or-down vote on judicial nominees.

Progress Iowa and the Why Courts Matter Iowa coalition have been holding Grassley accountable by working together to organize rallies, press conferences, and encouraging Iowans to call their Senator. Grassley is facing an increasing amount of pressure -- and recently he specifically attacked Progress Iowa in a fundraising letter to his supporters.
