Eastern Iowa faces crowded races as candidates file by deadline. In the 71st House district former holder Emil Husak opens the seat for Senate, with two Democrats Mary Hartnett and Gordon Earley challenging, and three Republicans David Wulf Gregg Edwards and Burt Nardie vying for the vacancy. The 38th Senate district vacancy draws four Republicans in addition to a Democrat.

Iowa Legislature Moves On Bond Rates and Housing Plans

Iowa lawmakers this week advanced a 3 percent increase in interest on tax exempt government bonds and a bill to raise car loan rates to 18 percent. The House backed an Iowa Family Enterprise Development Act to fund up to 200 million in bonds for beginning farmers or small businesses, plus a housing finance expansion adding 250 million to aid low interest loans and solar development. A soil conservation measure and a peak load management proposal also passed, while debates over franchise taxes and parimutuel betting continued. Several contested primaries and candidate filings across Eastern Iowa highlighted the near end of the session.
