Week in Iowa Legislature Focuses on ICC Rates and Crime Bills
Washington turmoil framed a busy Iowa General Assembly week. House approves unemployment changes and a streamlined Commerce Commission bill while Senate advances crime measures including a strict drunk driving standard, a nonprofit bingo bill directing 75 percent of proceeds to education or charity, and a broadened deadly force definition.
