Iowa House advances education reform plan in partisan vote
The Iowa House approved a broad education reform package on a largely party line vote. It expands charter schools and testing while keeping a third grade retention program, but rejects Gov. Branstad's GPA requirement for teachers and online class restrictions. The bill heads to the Senate for consideration as supporters cite progress toward reform and critics warn of long timelines.
