Iowa Income Tax Reform aims for simplification and phase-in
Urbandale Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds told a Westside Conservative Club that income tax relief is on the way but may not arrive this year. She and Gov. Branstad’s team are running numbers to create a simpler flatter tax while balancing education and Medicaid priorities, with a multi-year phase-in likely. Senator Randy Feenstra says a comprehensive rewrite will surface later this month, reducing brackets and revising credits to ensure overall relief.

Budget Cuts Hit FEMA TSA Coast Guard Amid Border Plan
Budget-cut proposal by the Office of Management and Budget targets FEMA and TSA for about 11 percent cuts and Coast Guard 14 percent, with DHS overall up 6.4 percent to 43.8 billion. The plan funds a border wall and immigration enforcement, while trimming disaster relief programs and flood risk prep including fees on flood insurance for lower value homes. After the 2008 Cedar Rapids flood FEMA funneled over 643 million to aid recovery, per The Gazette and Washington Post.
