Iowa corporate tax ruled unconstitutional in Des Moines
Polk County District Judge Anthony Critelli declared Iowa's corporate income tax law unconstitutional. The ruling returns the issue to the legislature and could trigger refunds and losses estimated at over eight million dollars to firms plus twelve million in assessments. An appeal to the Iowa Supreme Court is likely. Separately, FBI crime data ranks Las Vegas and Phoenix high for crime rates, with Las Vegas at 7.5 per 100k and Phoenix first.
