REGIONAL -- This last session of legislation provided a wide range of debates and changes for Iowa Citizens ranging from tax relief to how the judicial system operates.
The Republican lead majority was able to get a number of bills passed that were implemented on July 1. According to Iowa Representative Steven Holt and Iowa Senator Jason Schultz they were fairly successful with a few big changes like welfare reform and medical cannabis being vetoed, or lost in the senate.
