Gov. Robert Ray criticized a Senate approved land-use bill as ineffective saying it would not guarantee a state land-use plan and would leave local officials with broad control. The measure passed 31-19 and could still be shaped by the House.
Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller said on Thursday he will seek a second term. He ruled out a gubernatorial bid and highlighted three years of achievements in consumer and farmer protection and criminal law, pledging to run the office with continued efficiency.
The Iowa House State Government Committee rejected the Senate version in a 15-6 vote, favoring a plan that increases benefits for smaller pensions. The House plan raises the pension formula to 50 percent of the top five years on a $20,000 cap, boosts pre 1976 retirees by up to $30 monthly for 30 years of service, and trims future contributions by state and local governments. The Senate alternative would aid higher earners and allow a higher wage base, potentially widening gaps in benefits. The dispute sets up a House Senate clash over IPERS reforms affecting state, regents, county, city, and school district workers.
Iowa Senate debates over a wide banking reform bill that would extend lending and ownership rules across financial institutions. After hours of contention, Sen. Delahery moved to re-refer to the Commerce Committee for more work as supporters warn of a divided industry and potential death for this session.
