Iowa Game of Silence: State Settlements Total 2.4 Million
Iowa state payments of about 2.4 million across 38 settlements included 541000 tied to grievances and 1.85 million from court actions between 2010 and 2014. Auditor Mossman found confidentiality clauses did not conflict with open records law. most funds came from general or internal service funds with no federal dollars used. Senate leaders call for long term openness reforms while some cases show hush money concerns and one named employee received 6500 dollars for a non disclosure clause.
