Des Moines Lawmaker Targets High Cost of Living
Des Moines Representative Miller of Bremer aims to curb living costs with a weights and measures bill and an illegal combinations ban. The proposal enacts testing and licensing for public scales, requires itemized receipts listing weights, and bans sale by measure for coal and dry goods. It creates AG authority to investigate grocers and butchers with a $10,000 funding probe. Miller argues price relief hinges on reducing short weights and collusion. He cites population decline and factory pullback tied to high living costs.
