Towa Relief Eyes Cedar Rapids Manufacturing Plant
Towa Cannabis Co. sought and gained city endorsement for a Cedar Rapids facility but was not chosen by the state. Four applications for a second manufacturer were received by the Health Department. MedPharm was the first and Acreage Holdings ties to Boehner emerge in industry ties. The state has 539 registered cards and a narrow list of medical conditions allowed.

Iowa Court Rules 20 Week Abortion Ban Unconstitutional
The Iowa Supreme Court voided a 20 week abortion ban, saying it violates due process and equal protection. Justice Cady notes the statute is not narrowly tailored to a compelling state interest, while dissents argue the majority lacks balance and ignores long-standing bans prior to Roe v Wade. Rita Bettis Austen of the ACLU calls the decision a victory for Iowa women.
