Visiting With Senator Grassley At Farm Progress Show

Chuck Zimmerman

Iowa’s Senator Chuck Grassley spent some time at the Farm Progress Show. I caught up to him and found out that he had been checking out all the new technology on display at the show. When it comes to Washington, DC policy and specifically energy policy he provided an update of what we might expect in coming weeks. In September he says there should be a push to deal with taxes and that might include the expired biodiesel tax credit and the expiring ethanol tax credit. He also mentions the estate tax and the impact of the loss of the exemptions we currently have. In the photo the Senator is being interviewed by Michelle Rook, WNAX.
