Democrats Platform Endorses 1969 City Rule Reforms
The Iowa Democratic platform urges no new general tax increase in 1969 and calls for second passage of 1967 constitutional amendments on single member districts and voting residence rules. It favors home rule for cities, governor veto power, annual sessions, reapportionment, and adjusts legislative pay. Proposals include using liquor profits for alcohol treatment, raising Aid to Dependent Children payee age to 18 for unwed mothers, supporting state freeways, funding municipal streets, removing salary ceilings for officials, shared time in schools, collective bargaining in agriculture, and improved navigation on border rivers.
