Iowa U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley, a Republican, was the only of Iowa’s current congressional delegation to vote for the infrastructure bill. Rep. Cindy Axne, a Democrat who lost re-election in 2022, also voted for it.

Well yeah, everyone knows the internet makes you trans. Not surprising the vast majority of Republicans opposed this. Good on Grassley for going against the grain, I guess.
