To: Iowa Sierrans
Here are the bills I am tracking for the Iowa Chapter so far introduced
this session with actions occurring accumulated in the narrative. Note that
I include the Bill #, Bill Title, some notes of milestones. Appropriations
bills are not introduced as yet; they are always after the subcommittees
complete hearing times. Bills moving onto the House or Senate Calendars for
debate appear first in the lists.
DOVE HUNTING
SF 37, Dove Hunting, died a quiet death for this year, by being re-referred
to House Natural Resources Committee. It can be revived next year. Our side
had the votes to defeat it, so this was the outcome.
Let me know how I can make this missal, which will now be weekly, a more
useful and informative document. I will be adding other narrative
information as issues develop and as I gather it.
