Iowa Senators Split on Most Key Votes in 1987
Iowa Senators Charles Grassley and Tom Harkin largely split on 14 key votes in 1987, backing Reagan on many but supporting overrides on a few. They voted with and against party lines, with both supporting the farm aid and trade measures at times, and opposing or wavering on budget and defense issues. The House showed mixed party loyalty as delegates faced cross pressures.
