Legislature won’t override veto of medical cannabis bill
Iowa leaders signal no special session to override Gov Reynolds veto on House File 732. The measure would lift the 3 percent THC cap and set a 25 gram per 90 days limit, while the board recommended 4.5 grams. Democrats urge a session to push the override as patients suffer without access.

Polk County District Court Grant funds for sex education remain available as judge issues a temporary injunction delaying a law that would bar organizations that provide or promote abortion from PREP and CAPP funding. Planned Parenthood of the Heartland and the ACLU sued, arguing the measure violates free speech, due process and equal protection. The ruling keeps about 265000 in grants for this year while the case proceeds.
