Sen. @ChuckGrassley: "40 years ago today, I voted no on the Senate being televised...on reflection, I'm glad that the Senate is televised to make government more real to the American people. So, I guess I'd have to confess that I cast the wrong vote 40 years ago."
Sen. @ChuckGrassley: "Happy 40th Birthday to C-SPAN broadcasting democracy in the Senate to the American people."
