Iowa Crime-Fighting Funds Slowed by State Shortfall
Iowa faces a potential loss of federal crime fighting funds unless the legislature provides about 600 000 to cover the state share for the Buy In program. George W. Orr warned the Iowa Executive Council that without state money cities would be cut out of the multi million dollar package and funds would go to individual projects. Governor Ray urged urgent action noting the budget hole and prior legislative failure to appropriate the money. The plan seeks 10 to 12 million for Iowa crime programs with the state covering 25 percent.
