Iowa City office plans staff cuts and service shrinkage
The Iowa City Workforce Development office plans to trim staff from 14 to four while transitioning to a satellite operation. Clients will be advised to call a toll free number for help and may travel to Cedar Rapids or Davenport for full services. The plan awaits approval and could reduce one-to-one assistance and shift to online claim forms and job preparation guidance.

Branstad hires outside counsel at 275 per hour
Gov. Terry Branstad wins Executive Council approval to hire outside legal help at up to 275 dollars an hour to defend against a suit by five Democratic lawmakers and the state employees union president over his veto of a bill to keep Iowa Workforce Development offices open. The move drew criticism from State Treasurer Mike Fitzgerald who called it costly politics.
