To All:
Below are the new bills introduced this past week which I have included in
my database for tracking for Sierra Club, Iowa Chapter. You should be able
to click on the weblink(s) and be taken to the bill text or to the bill
history if you want to see that. (HSBs and SSBs do not have history links.)
FUNNEL WEEK
This last week was the First Funnel week, so the Legislature picked up speed
with increased committee actions on many bills just introduced during the
week. Floor action will be the primary focus for the next 2 weeks, followed
by the Second Funnel in opposite chambers.
It was a frantic, hectic week!
NOTE: Add this list to the last three, and you have the accumulation of the
bills we are following for this session so far. A separate smaller list of
bills having survived the funnel and now on the Calendar in each chamber
follows in separate email. That will be the list of currently active bills.
