Evidence
Grassley said Iowa continues to benefit from his support for the bipartisan infrastructure law, and the release tied $15.75 million in Iowa airport awards to the Grassley-backed Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. He explicitly linked the funding to roads, bridges, and airport infrastructure.
NTIA’s dashboard says all 56 states and territories submitted Final Proposals, 54 received NTIA approval, 52 had NIST approval, and 51 had returned award agreements, showing the BEAD broadband deployment process had moved into the award-finalization stage.
Assessments
Grassley promised bipartisan work on Iowa infrastructure investments, including roads, bridges, and broadband. The evidence shows he supported the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and later tied ongoing Iowa transportation and airport awards to that Grassley-backed law during his Senate term. The BEAD broadband program created by the same federal infrastructure package was also moving through final proposal approval and award stages during his term. Because the promised outcome was to work across party lines on investments, not to personally complete every project, support for and continued advancement of the bipartisan infrastructure law is enough for full delivery.
