Iowa GOP platform favors civil rights and school reforms
Iowa Republicans approved a progressive platform at the state convention, backing changes in government and schools and expanding civil rights enforcement. Delegates defeated planks on letting 19 year olds vote, banning racial imbalance in schools, and privately owned wine stores, but supported eliminating the $500 bonding provision in housing law and empowering the Civil Rights Commission to seek temporary housing injunctions. A shared time concept in schools and a study of its expansion were urged, while private school transportation funding was defeated. The platform calls for drafting proposals into bill form for the next session.
