Budget cuts could crumble state services in Iowa
Iowa officials warn that trimming 1.8 million from administrative agencies could trigger service crumbling and revenue losses. Patrick Cavanaugh, director of the Iowa Department of Management, says cuts to agencies from Branstad's administration could force layoffs and reduce state revenues by millions. Subcommittee chair Dan Fogarty notes the cuts align with spending targets but may be partially restored if new revenue is found.
