Branstad Signs Energy Efficiency Bill Amid Lottery Veto Fight
Gov. Terry Branstad signed Senate File 2403 creating incentives for conservation and statewide energy efficiency standards while later vetoing 4.3 million in lottery profits slated to fund the programs. Democrats criticized the move as political posturing. The measure aims to reduce Iowa energy use by up to 30 percent in 20 years, with utilities contributing to a new conservation fund and expanded ethanol use in gasoline.
