Iowa General Assembly Passes Motor Vehicle Tax Bill
The Iowa General Assembly advances a motor vehicles bill with amendments, boosting license minimums to 16 dollars and adding a 1 percent surcharge on higher value autos. It directs license collection to county treasurers, issues permanent plates, and earmarks over 6 million for highway construction. The measure faces potential House-Senate discord over changes.
