Legislature ends session amid tax clash and pay raises
The closing days of the Iowa Legislature drew a carnival atmosphere as leaders traded votes. A 6 percent annual growth cap on residential and agricultural assessments passed along with a statewide or district 6 percent lid. A pay raise for officials, judges, and lawmakers was approved, with a governor’s raise to 55,000 if signed, and a new retirement option for legislators. Beer Sunday sales and liquor tax changes cleared both chambers while a land preservation plan set up county commissions and district conventions. A special session is likely to fund pay increases and unemployment fund reforms. The Iowa Supreme Court upheld the state corporation tax as constitutional, and a gasoline tax increase failed in the Senate. A few community notices about birthday celebrations documented in Forest City and surrounding areas follow.

Tam Crucified With Christ Salvation By Faith
The text explains salvation as oneness with the Lord Jesus Christ. It argues Christ died our death, not His, and that faith makes believers united with Him in death and resurrection. Believers are buried with Him in a divine baptism and are complete in Him. Galatians 2 20 Colossians 2 12 9 10 are cited.
