During a town hall in Lee County, Iowa, Senator Chuck Grassley faced intense heckling from constituents frustrated about the Trump administration's treatment of migrants, particularly regarding the deportation and imprisonment of asylum seekers without due process. As they expressed their concerns rooted in Christian values of welcoming strangers, Grassley attempted to defend current immigration policies, insisting that all legal avenues to welcome refugees are being pursued. However, the audience's fervent reactions highlighted deep discontent with the current state of asylum processes and the administration's practices.
I think turning away people who have come here for asylum is one of the most shameful things we are doing right now.
Everything that we can do legally under our laws, we welcome refugees, that's the legal status.
There's no due process! shouted a man in the crowd.
I would welcome refugees and I'll welcome people for asylum.
