Where to Get the Money Iowa considers raises to fund state operations
Iowa lawmakers face revenue gaps as they prepare for the Des Moines session. A revenue study committee proposes options including extending the 2 percent sales tax to services, raising it to 3 percent, adding to the income tax, or combinations. Estimates suggest $15 to $46 million from service-tax expansion and $36 to $40 million from income-tax changes, with concerns over border merchant reactions. The aim is increased funds for local property tax relief, hoping benefits reach communities.
