Iowa lawmakers grapple with spending a 1.3 billion state budget while balancing highway, university, and social programs and facing a push for a new Oakdale prison. Senate supports 6.6 million for a prison near Iowa City, with juvenile home closures, while House favors halfway houses. Medical malpractice limits, driver license photos, and credit card payments for fines move forward, with school dismissals and administrator reforms drawing debate.
