Community Letters Decries Grassley NRA Funds and Trump
The Tribune News Service notes Sen. Grassley received 232337 from the NRA last year and cites his vote against an assault rifle ban. The letter writer condemns President Trump as historically worst, urges removal of him and Republicans, and calls for politicians to refuse NRA money, urging replacements who offer action over words. Debra Warrens of Waterloo echoes calls to follow governor’s advice to replace pro NRA politicians with those offering stronger measures amid Parkland reactions.
