The #ialegis may have capped its nearly 24-hour marathon this morning, but several bills still await action from Governor Reynolds. One of those is an eminent domain-related proposal, aimed at pipeline projects. One Rep. says he’s confident she’ll sign: whoradio.iheart.com/featured/who...

As of 6:01 a.m., the Iowa Senate has adjourned sine die. One more appropriations bill needs to run in the House and then #ialegis lawmakers will officially put a bow on the 2025 session.

The #ialegis is on its way to adjourning for the year, but as of 12:25 a.m. two bills and goodbye speeches stand in the way. Here’s a look inside the state House of Representatives:

Filed today in the #ialegis: a resolution that would urge the Supreme Court to take another look at same-sex marriage. It particularly calls out the Obergefell ruling. Filed by Sen. Sandy Salmon, a Republican from a rural area north of Cedar Falls. whoradio.iheart.com/featured/who...

My report from this morning's public hearing in the legislature: whoradio.iheart.com/featured/who...

Protestors have once again gathered at the Iowa State Capitol, opposing legislation removing Gender Identity from the Iowa Civil Rights code. State senators are technically in caucus, but a number of them are watching on.

Pictured here, Janice Weiner (D-Iowa City) and Scott Webster (R-Bettendorf).

Bird’s eye view this morning inside the Iowa Senate chambers. They’re expected to vote on Senate File 418, which would remove gender identity from the state’s Civil Rights code. A party line vote is expected in the Senate, but crazier things have happened.
