Lawmakers clash over Des Moines Water Works bill
The Farm Bureau faces charges of backing a bill to dismantle Des Moines Water Works and move its assets to a regional authority. Critics say the bill aims to muzzle the utility in its nitrate pollution lawsuit, while Farm Bureau reps deny involvement and emphasize adherence to legislative rules. Des Moines leaders warn the measure could curtail water infrastructure funding and threaten clean water for 500000 central Iowans.
