No Stiffer Law on Police Assaults, Iowa Lawmakers Split
In Des Moines, Democratic leaders Gene Glenn and Norman Jesse oppose Hultman’s push for harsher penalties for assaults on police. Hultman cites two officer deaths and three wounded as reason to strengthen laws, while Glenn and Jesse argue the current code already covers assaults and reject reacting to tense crises. Police staffing and recruiting trends show only a modest drop in applicants after officers were shot this year.
