Hard Tasks Ahead For Legislators in 51st General Assembly

Iowa's fifty first general assembly opens in Des Moines with committees to be named by both houses. The session faces large funding needs for a $12,000,000 school code revision and a $638,000,000 long term road plan, requiring careful budgeting beyond current year. Revenues since wartime began show gains in most taxes, with gasoline and motor vehicle taxes fluctuating due to rationing. Sales tax receipts remain the highest since its 1988 start, and income tax payments reflect only half of the tax, indicating growth in Iowa's postwar finances.
