Senator Chuck Grassley took a tour of 3M in Knoxville Thursday. Senator Grassley tells KNIA/KRLS what he learned.

“I learned about the company, now I know what 3M does. I‘ve seen a tremendous upgrade, maybe not in the products but in the way they make them. You should go in and see what they do with one product. I bet there is a quarter-mile of belt that I bet there are not two or three employees at everything that happens. The other thing was to answer their questions about energy independence, vaccine mandates, and supply chain issues at town hall meetings.”

Senator Grassley’s tour is part of his effort to visit all 99 of Iowa’s counties
