Lawmakers push to ban police review boards
Iowa Senate Republicans advance Study Bill 1010 to disband citizen review boards that oversee police conduct in Cedar Rapids and Iowa City while revising civil service commissions. The bill faces House hurdles and divides senators over due process and taxpayer costs, with supporters framing it as protecting policing from political interference and opponents urging grandfathering existing boards and preserving fair review.
