Budget tax relief advocate urges 5 percent pay cut
Des Moines urged Gov. Culver to seek a 5 percent pay cut for state employees to save jobs as union contract talks reopen amid plunging state revenues. Ed Failor Jr of Iowa's for Tax Relief argues salary reductions over nine months are less harmful than a 10 percent across the board cut.

Court layoffs delayed to next month in Iowa
Linn County District Court employees and others across Iowa were told no layoffs will be announced until next month as the judicial branch studies cost-cutting options. State court administrator David Boyd said retirements or voluntary layoffs should be pursued now to lessen the impact, with a $16 million cut tied to Gov. Culver's 10 percent reduction. The final plan awaits Supreme Court approval, expected next month.
