Menendez raising money for Joni Ernst opponent [View all]

U.S. Senator Bob Menendez is raising money for Democrat Theresa Greenfield, who is seeking to challenge incumbent Joni Ernst for Iowa’s U.S. Senate seat.

“In the last three years, we’ve seen Donald Trump tear this nation apart.

Ernst won the seat in 2014, largely boosted by a 30-second TV ad that featured her talking about castrating pigs on the Iowa farm where she grew up.
