Winnebago tribal leaders urged Iowa lawmakers not to loosen state gambling policy after Senate committee approval. The rally on the Statehouse steps followed House action on slot machines at race tracks and riverboat betting limits.

Uniformity for special plates faces committee setback

Des Moines Iowa. The Senate Transportation Committee curbed a plan to restore uniformity to state license plates. The measure would replace existing specialty plates with a uniform plate, plus a purchasable decal. Senator Don Gettings warned of revenue loss as Hawkeye and Cyclone fans favor colored plates. The bill failed on a tie vote, but House supporters may seek resurrection via amendment.

Registry for fathers cut from adoption bill

Des Moines report says the Senate Human Resources Committee removed the putative father registry from an adoption bill. Rep. Hurley calls the registry a cornerstone to protect parental rights, while Sen. Sturgeon and Sen. Buhr criticize the concept as flawed but note other provisions remain. The measure still requires pre and post birth counseling for mothers, upholds a 72 hour waiting period, defines the child’s best interests, and allows social records to be shared with adoptive parents.
