Senate approves home rule plan amid subdistricting clash
Iowa Senate moves to pass a permanent reapportionment plan and a mandatory subdistricting amendment. Supporters argue the plan curbs legislative size from 185 to 150 and preserves subdistricting while opponents warn it could be rendered moot by future rulings. The chamber also backs the home rule measure, sending it to the House for consideration and potential voter ratification.
