CBSN
Former Democratic Iowa Congresswoman Abby Finkenauer announced on Thursday that she's running for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Republican Chuck Grassley.
Finkenauer, 32, is the first major Democratic candidate to enter the race. She was elected to Congress in 2018, but lost her bid for a second term to freshman Representative Ashley Hinson. "I'm running for U.S. Senate because Iowa, and our Democracy, are worth fighting for," Finkenauer tweeted on Thursday. "After 46 years in D.C., Chuck Grassley has lost touch with both."More Related News
