| SF560 | A bill for an act relating to participation in the electronic registration information center. | This bill requires the state registrar of voters to use certain information from the electronic registration information center to update information in the statewide voter registration system. The electronic registration information center is a nonprofit entity comprised of state election officials, with 24 member states. | In Committee |
| SF557 | A bill for an act relating to transactions involving covered financial instruments by members of the general assembly, legislative staff, and their immediate family, based on nonpublic information, and providing penalties. | This bill relates to trading transactions involving covered financial instruments by members of the general assembly, legislative staff persons, and the immediate family of either based on nonpublic information. The bill prohibits a member of the general assembly, a legislative staff person, and the immediate family of either from directly or indirectly buying, selling, or otherwise engaging in a transaction involving a covered financial instrument if the transaction is based on information derived from the member’s position or official duties, that has not been made publicly available, and that could reasonably be expected to affect the market value of the covered financial instrument, subject to limited exceptions. Current law requires members of, and candidates for, the general assembly to file personal financial disclosure statements with the member’s chamber. The bill requires members of the general assembly to report transactions involving covered financial instruments to the Iowa ethics and campaign disclosure board (board). The board must disclose the reports to the public on the board’s internet site. The board is required to investigate alleged violations of the bill and may refer cases of suspected violations to other appropriate authorities for further investigation and action. The board must submit an annual report to the general assembly including information regarding the effectiveness of the bill, the number of transactions reported, any penalties imposed, and any recommendations for further legislative action. A violation of the bill is a class “C” felony. A class “C” felony is punishable by confinement for no more than 10 years and a fine of at least $1,370 but not more than $13,660. In addition, a person who violates the bill is subject to financial penalties, including disgorgement of any profits resulting from a prohibited transaction, tax liability relating to prohibited transactions, and a member or legislative staff person may face disciplinary action by the applicable ethics committee. The bill does not prohibit a federal authority from imposing additional penalties, if applicable. | In Committee |
| SF561 | A bill for an act allowing the use of ranked choice and instant runoff voting in local government elections in this state. | This bill allows ranked choice and instant runoff voting, defined in the bill, to be used to cast or tabulate ballots in elections for local government offices, defined in the bill. | In Committee |
| SF562 | A bill for an act relating to utilization review organizations, prior authorizations and exemptions, medical billing, and independent review organizations. | This bill relates to utilization review organizations, prior authorizations and exemptions, medical billing, and independent review organizations. Under the bill, a health carrier (carrier) that uses an artificial intelligence, algorithm, or other software tool (artificial intelligence) for the purpose of utilization review, or that contracts with or works through an entity that uses an artificial intelligence for the purpose of utilization review, shall ensure that (1) the artificial intelligence bases its determination on the information described in the bill; (2) the artificial intelligence does not base its determination solely on a group dataset; (3) the artificial intelligence’s criteria and guidelines comply with Code chapter 514F and applicable state and federal law; (4) the artificial intelligence does not supplant health care provider (provider) decision making; (5) the use of the artificial intelligence does not discriminate against covered persons; (6) the artificial intelligence is fairly and equitably applied; (7) the artificial intelligence is open to inspection for audit or compliance reviews by the insurance division (division) and the department of health and human services; (8) disclosures pertaining to the use and oversight of the artificial intelligence are contained in written policies and procedures; (9) the artificial intelligence’s performance, use, and outcomes are periodically reviewed and revised; (10) patient data is not used beyond its intended and stated purpose; and (11) the artificial intelligence does not cause harm to a covered person. “Artificial intelligence” is defined in the bill. The artificial intelligence shall not deny, delay, or modify health care services (services) based on medical necessity, and a determination of medical necessity shall be made only by a competent provider. The bill requires a utilization review organization (organization) to respond to a request for prior authorization (authorization) from a provider within 48 hours after receipt for urgent requests or within 10 calendar days for nonurgent requests, unless there are complex or unique circumstances, or the organization is experiencing an unusually high volume of authorization requests, then an organization must respond within 15 calendar days. Within 24 hours after receipt of an authorization request, the organization shall notify a provider of, or make available, a receipt for the authorization request. The bill requires an organization to annually review all services for which authorization is required and to eliminate authorization requirements for services for which authorization requests are so routinely approved that the authorization requirement is not justified as it does not promote health care quality or reduce health care spending. Complaints regarding an organization’s compliance with the bill may be directed to the division, and the division shall notify an organization of all complaints. Complaints received under the bill shall not be considered public records. Under the bill, a carrier that utilizes authorization shall make statistics available regarding authorization approvals and denials on the carrier’s internet site in a readily accessible format. Following each calendar year, the statistics shall be updated annually by March 31, and shall include all of the information detailed in the bill. Under the bill, carriers, hospital and medical service corporations, health maintenance organizations, and providers shall comply with the requirements of Tit. I of the federal No Surprises Act, Pub. L. No. 116-260, Division BB, as may be amended, and the commissioner of insurance (commissioner) shall enforce such compliance. The commissioner may refer cases of noncompliance to the federal department of health and human services under the terms of a collaborative enforcement agreement, or to the attorney general. Under current law, an independent review organization (IRO) required to maintain written records shall submit a report to the commissioner upon request. Under the bill, an IRO required to maintain written records shall annually submit a report to the commissioner. The commissioner shall make the IRO reports publicly accessible on the division’s internet site. Under current law, each carrier required to maintain written records of requests for external review shall submit a report to the commissioner upon request. Under the bill, each carrier required to maintain written records of requests for external review shall annually submit a report to the commissioner. The commissioner shall make the carrier reports publicly accessible on the division’s internet site. The bill requires, on or before January 15, 2026, all carriers that deliver, issue for delivery, continue, or renew a health benefit plan (plan) in this state on or after January 1, 2026, to implement an authorization exemption pilot program (program) that exempts a subset of participating providers, including primary providers, from certain authorization requirements. Each carrier shall make available for each plan details about the plan’s authorization exemption requirements on the carrier’s internet site, including the carrier’s criteria for a provider to qualify for the program, the health care services that are exempt from authorization requirements, the estimated number of providers who are eligible for the program, including the providers’ specialties and the percentage of the providers that are primary care providers, and contact information for consumers and providers to contact the plan about the program or a provider’s eligibility for the program. On or before January 15, 2027, each carrier required to implement a program under the bill shall submit a report to the commissioner containing the results of the program, including an analysis of the costs and savings of the program, the plan’s recommendations for continuing or expanding the program, feedback received by each plan, and an assessment of the administrative costs incurred by each of the carrier’s plans to administer and implement authorization requirements under the program. | In Committee |

| SF556 | A bill for an act relating to eligibility requirements for pregnant women, postpartum women, and infants under the special supplemental nutrition program for women, infants, and children. | This bill relates to eligibility requirements for pregnant women, postpartum women, and infants under the special supplemental nutrition program for women, infants, and children (WIC). The bill requires the department of health and human services (HHS) to submit a request to the food and nutrition service of the United States department of agriculture (USDA) for approval of a waiver to provide, for purposes of WIC, continuous eligibility during a woman’s pregnancy for a pregnant woman whose family income does not exceed 375 percent of the federal poverty level (FPL), 12 months of continuous postpartum eligibility for a postpartum woman whose family income does not exceed 375 percent of the FPL, and 12 months from the date of an infant’s birth of continuous eligibility for an infant whose family income does not exceed 375 percent of the FPL. The bill requires HHS to implement the waiver not fewer than 30 calendar days from the receipt of approval from the USDA food and nutrition service. If the USDA food and nutrition service does not approve the waiver, HHS shall submit a report to the general assembly on or before December 31, 2025, containing the cost of HHS providing the expanded eligibility under WIC without the assistance of additional federal moneys. On July 1, 2026, if the USDA fails to approve the waiver to expand eligibility for pregnant women, postpartum women, and infants under WIC, and the general assembly appropriates moneys for the purpose of expanding eligibility for pregnant women, postpartum women, and infants under WIC, HHS shall provide continuous eligibility during a woman’s pregnancy for a pregnant woman whose family income that does not exceed 375 percent of the FPL, 12 months of continuous postpartum eligibility for a postpartum woman whose family income does not exceed 375 percent of the FPL, and 12 months from the date of an infant’s birth of continuous eligibility for an infant whose family income does not exceed 375 percent of the FPL. | In Committee |
| SF558 | A bill for an act relating to Medicaid program improvements, making an appropriation, and providing penalties. | This bill relates to the Medicaid program. Division I of the bill requires the department of health and human services (HHS) to adopt administrative rules to ensure that services are provided to the Medicaid long-term services and supports (LTSS) population in a conflict-free manner. Specifically, the bill requires that case management services shall be provided by independent providers and that the supports intensity scale assessments are performed by independent assessors. Division II of the bill directs HHS to require each Medicaid managed care organization (MCO) with whom HHS executes a contract, to provide the option to LTSS population members to enroll in or transition to fee-for-service Medicaid program administration rather than managed care administration. The department shall amend any contract, request any Medicaid state plan amendment, and adopt administrative rules, as necessary, to administer this provision. The rules shall include the process for transitioning a current LTSS population member to fee-for-service program administration. Division III of the bill directs HHS to require each MCO with whom HHS executes a contract to maintain an authorized member’s LTSS unless the member’s health care provider determines a change in the LTSS is medically necessary for the member. The inability of a member who is authorized for LTSS to utilize all approved service hours, including respite care, shall not result in a reduction in authorized services unless there is medical evidence that the services are medically unnecessary for the member. Division IV of the bill requires HHS to contractually require any Medicaid MCO to collaborate with HHS and stakeholders to develop and administer a workforce recruitment, retention, and training program to provide adequate access to appropriate services, including but not limited to services to older Iowans. The department shall ensure that any such program developed is administered in a coordinated and collaborative manner across all contracting MCOs and shall require the MCOs to submit quarterly progress and outcomes reports to HHS. Division V of the bill establishes an external independent third-party review process for Medicaid providers for the review of final adverse determinations of the MCOs’ internal appeals processes. The division provides that a final decision of an external independent third-party reviewer may be reviewed in a contested case proceeding pursuant to Code chapter 17A, and ultimately is subject to judicial review. The bill provides a civil penalty for an MCO that does not comply with the written response requirements relating to an adverse determination. Division VI of the bill relates to member disenrollment for good cause during the 12 months of closed enrollment between open enrollment periods. The bill requires HHS to contractually require all Medicaid MCOs to issue a decision in response to a member’s request for disenrollment for good cause within 10 days of the date the member submits the request to the MCO utilizing the MCO’s grievance process and to adopt administrative rules to administer the division. Division VII of the bill requires the HHS to develop uniform authorization criteria for, and to utilize a request for proposals process to procure, a single credentialing verification organization to be utilized in credentialing and recredentialing providers for the Medicaid managed care and fee-for-service payment and delivery systems. The bill requires HHS to contractually require all Medicaid MCOs to apply the uniform authorization criteria, to accept verified information from the single credentialing verification organization procured by HHS, and to contractually prohibit the MCOs from requiring additional credentialing information from a provider in order to participate in the Medicaid MCO’s provider network. Division VIII of the bill relates to the office of long-term care ombudsman (OLTCO) and the Medicaid managed care ombudsman program (MCOP). For fiscal year 2025-2026, the bill appropriates $300,000 from the general fund of the state, in addition to any other funds appropriated from the general fund of the state to, and authorizes 2.50 FTEs in addition to any other full-time equivalent (FTE) positions authorized for, HHS for the OLTCO for the purposes of the MCOP. The funding appropriated and the FTE positions authorized under the bill are in addition to any other funds appropriated from the general fund of the state and actually expended, and any other FTE positions authorized and actually filled as of July 1, 2025, for the MCOP. The bill requires that any funds appropriated to and any full-time equivalent positions authorized for the OLTCO for the MCOP for fiscal year 2025-2026 shall be used exclusively for the MCOP. The additional FTE positions authorized in the bill for the MCOP shall be filled no later than September 1, 2025. The bill requires the OLTCO to include in the MCOP report, on a quarterly basis, the disposition of resources for the MCOP including expenditures and an FTE positions summary for the prior quarter. Division IX amends the provision regarding the meetings of the health policy oversight committee (HPOC) of the legislative council. Current law provides that HPOC may meet annually. The bill provides that HPOC shall meet, and further requires that HPOC meet at least two times, annually, during the legislative interim. Division X of the bill directs HHS to require each MCO with whom HHS executes a contract to annually submit a report by March 1 to HHS detailing the profit the MCO received from administering Medicaid care during the immediately preceding calendar year, and the methodology the MCO used to calculate the profit. HHS may select an independent auditor to verify each MCO’s report. HHS shall make each MCO’s report publicly available on HHS’s internet site. | In Committee |
| SF559 | A bill for an act relating to speech language pathologist assistants and the medical assistance program, and including effective date provisions. | This bill directs the department of health and human services (HHS) to adopt rules that permit a speech language pathologist assistant practicing under a licensed speech pathologist to be reimbursed for speech language pathologist assistant services provided to recipients of the medical assistance program, subject to limitations and exclusions HHS finds necessary. The bill also directs HHS to submit any necessary federal waiver or amendment for the medical assistance program to include a speech language pathologist assistant practicing under a licensed speech pathologist to participate as a provider under the medical assistance program. HHS shall include speech language pathologist assistants as providers under the medical assistance program upon HHS’s receipt of federal approval. | In Committee |
| SF485 | A bill for an act establishing requirements related to nonpublic schools that receive tuition payments from parents or guardians whose students are participating in the education savings account program. | This bill establishes requirements related to nonpublic schools that receive tuition payments from parents or guardians whose students are participating in the education savings account program. Current Code section 257.11B establishes the education savings account program, which allows for payments to be made to parents and guardians for the payment of qualified educational expenses. Current law defines “qualified educational expenses” to include tuition and fees at a nonpublic school. The bill modifies the definition of “qualified educational expenses” for purposes of the education savings account program to provide that the nonpublic school must adhere to all of the following: the accountability and transparency requirements applicable to the boards of directors of school districts, the data reporting requirements applicable to school districts, the accreditation standards applicable to school districts, and the teacher employment and teacher licensing requirements applicable to school districts. The bill strikes a provision of Code section 257.11B that prohibits the Code section from being construed to authorize the state or any political subdivision of the state to require a nonpublic school to modify the nonpublic school’s educational program in order to receive payment from a parent or guardian using funds from a pupil’s account in the education savings account fund. | In Committee |
| SF434 | A bill for an act relating to the creation of a child care solutions fund, and making an appropriation. | This bill relates to the creation of a child care solutions fund (fund) under the control of the department of health and human services (HHS). The bill defines “child care worker” as a person employed by a child care provider and whose primary duties involve the provision of child care to children in this state. The bill defines “community” as a geographic area designated by HHS. The bill also defines “fund”. The fund consists of moneys appropriated by the general assembly for the purposes detailed in the bill; interest attributable to the investment of moneys in the fund; and moneys from gifts, devises, donations, and grants that are intended to be used for the fund’s purposes. Moneys in the fund are appropriated to HHS for distributions to communities. Distributions must be used to provide a state match of $2 for every $1 of private investment a community obtains to increase the wages of child care workers. The bill requires HHS to establish eligibility requirements for a geographic area to be designated as a community, and for the geographic area to maintain the community designation. HHS must continue to designate communities until the entire geographic area of the state is within a community. The bill requires HHS, on or before January 1 of each year, to submit a report, as detailed in the bill, for the immediately preceding fiscal year to the general assembly relating to the fund, and the impact on communities who received money from the fund. The bill requires HHS to adopt rules to administer the fund. The bill requires HHS to use the moneys in the fund to continue to provide state matching moneys to communities that received funds due to the community’s participation in HHS’s child care wage enhancement project during FY 2024-2025. The bill appropriates $6 million to HHS for FY 2025-2026 for deposit in the fund. | In Committee |
| SF433 | A bill for an act relating to direct acting antiviral medications, including prior authorization requirements, and the Iowa medical assistance drug utilization review commission. | This bill relates to direct acting antivirals, including prior authorization requirements, and the Iowa medical assistance drug utilization review commission (commission). The bill prohibits the department of health and human services from requiring prior authorization for direct acting antiviral medications used to treat hepatitis C that are on the preferred drug list for the medical assistance program. The bill requires the commission to review, by July 1, 2026, the prescription drug vosevi for placement on the preferred drug list pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §1396r-8 as a preferred direct acting antiviral for treatment of hepatitis C. | In Committee |
| SF439 | A bill for an act allowing cities to certify taxes for a general fund levy for libraries. | 2023 Iowa Acts, chapter 71 (HF 718), amended Code section 384.12 (additional taxes) to eliminate several taxes a city may levy subject to voter approval at an election. In lieu thereof, HF 718 allowed cities to levy the same amounts the eliminated taxes could have levied as a part of the general fund levy under Code section 384.1. This bill reestablishes the tax levy for a public library eliminated by HF 718 in an amount not to exceed 27 cents per $1,000. The tax imposed under the bill is subject to the same voter approval and notice requirements that existed prior to the enactment of HF 718. | In Committee |
| SF456 | A bill for an act relating to the choice of doctor to treat injured employees under workers' compensation laws and including effective date and applicability provisions. | This bill relates to the choice of a physician to treat an injured employee under the state’s workers’ compensation laws. The bill allows the employer to choose care unless the employee has predesignated a physician as provided in the bill. The bill gives an employee the right to predesignate a physician who is a primary care provider, who has previously provided treatment to the employee and has retained the employee’s medical records, to provide treatment for a work-related injury. The employer is required to provide written notice to employees of this right upon hire, and periodically during employment, and upon receiving notice of an injury from an employee who has not yet predesignated a physician of the employee’s right to do so, in a manner prescribed by the workers’ compensation commissioner. An employer or an employer’s insurer shall not coerce or otherwise attempt to influence an injured employee’s choice of a physician. If the employer fails to provide such notification, an injured employee has the right to choose any physician to provide treatment for the work-related injury and that treatment shall be considered authorized care. If the employer or employee is dissatisfied with the care chosen by the other party, the dissatisfied party should communicate the basis of dissatisfaction to the other party, in writing if requested, and the parties may agree to alternate care reasonably suited to treat the injury. If the parties cannot agree to such alternate care, the dissatisfied party may make an application for alternate care to the commissioner. The bill provides procedures for proceedings on such applications. The bill provides that if the employee has chosen care, when it is medically indicated that no significant improvement from an injury is anticipated, the employee may obtain a medical opinion regarding the extent of the employee’s permanent disability. If the employer believes that the evaluation of permanent disability obtained by the employee is too high, the employer has the right to obtain another medical opinion from a physician of the employer’s choosing. The bill takes effect and applies to injuries occurring on or after January 1, 2026. | In Committee |
| SF455 | A bill for an act requiring certain weekly workers' compensation benefits to be calculated by including an employee's overtime and premium pay, and to include an annual cost-of-living adjustment. | This bill requires certain weekly workers’ compensation benefits to be calculated by including an employee’s overtime and premium pay, and to include an annual cost-of-living adjustment. The bill requires the calculation of the amount of weekly workers’ compensation benefits to include, not exclude, an employee’s earnings for overtime and premium pay. The bill requires the basis of compensation for weekly workers’ compensation benefits payable for permanent total disability benefits or death benefits to increase on January 1 each year for compensation that becomes due that year, by a percentage equal to the cost-of-living adjustment made to disability benefits payable by the United States social security administration in December of the immediately preceding year. Technical corrections are also made to remove an unnumbered paragraph and for purposes of clarity. | In Committee |
| SF454 | A bill for an act relating to standards for determination of loss or permanent impairment for purposes of permanent partial disability under workers' compensation and including applicability provisions. | Under current law, determinations of extent of loss or percentage of permanent impairment for purposes of permanent partial disability under workers’ compensation use the guides to the evaluation of permanent impairment published by the American medical association, as adopted by the workers’ compensation commissioner by rule. This bill specifies that the most recent annual update to the most recent edition of the guides shall be used. The bill strikes the requirement that the workers’ compensation commissioner adopt the guides by rule. The workers’ compensation commissioner has adopted the fifth edition of the guides, published in 2001, by rule. The most recent annual update to the most recent edition of the guides is currently the 2024 update to the sixth edition. The bill applies to determinations of extent of loss or percentage of permanent impairment for purposes of permanent partial disability under workers’ compensation occurring on or after the effective date of the bill. | In Committee |
| SJR8 | A joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Iowa relating to citizen initiatives to amend the Constitution of the State of Iowa. | A joint resolution proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the State of Iowa relating to citizen initiatives to amend the Constitution of the State of Iowa. | In Committee |
| SF417 | A bill for an act relating to insurance coverage and Medicaid coverage for annual lung cancer screenings for at-risk individuals. | This bill relates to insurance coverage and medical assistance program (Medicaid) coverage for annual lung cancer screenings for at-risk individuals. The bill defines “at-risk individual” as a recipient or covered person 50 years of age or older that either has smoked cigarettes regularly or experienced secondhand smoke regularly, has an immediate family member diagnosed with lung cancer, or has been regularly exposed to asbestos, radon, arsenic, nickel, chromium, tar, or soot in the individual’s home or workplace. The bill defines “lung cancer screening” as a scan of the lungs using low-dose computed tomography. Under the bill, the department of health and human services shall seek any federal waiver necessary for Medicaid to provide coverage for an annual lung cancer screening for at-risk individuals. Contingent on receiving approval of, and effective immediately upon receiving approval of, a federal waiver, Medicaid shall provide coverage for annual lung cancer screenings for at-risk individuals. The bill requires a policy, contract, or plan providing for third-party payment or prepayment of health or medical expenses to provide coverage for an annual lung cancer screening for an at-risk individual. Cost-sharing shall not be imposed by a health carrier for coverage required under the bill. Coverage required under the bill shall not be less favorable than coverage a health carrier offers for screening mammograms. The bill applies to third-party payment providers enumerated in the bill, and the commissioner of insurance may adopt rules to administer the requirements of the bill applying to such third-party payment providers. The bill specifies the types of specialized health-related insurance which are not subject to the coverage requirements of the bill. | In Committee |
| SF372 | A bill for an act concerning eligibility for unemployment benefits. | This bill relates to unemployment benefits. Under current law, the department of workforce development may establish by rule a process to waive or alter the work search requirements for a claim for benefits if an individual has a reasonable expectation that the individual will be returning to employment and is attached to a regular job or industry or a member in good standing of a union therein eligible for referral for employment. To be considered attached to a regular job or industry, an individual must be on a “short-term temporary layoff”, which is defined as a layoff period of 16 weeks or less due to seasonal weather conditions that impact the ability to perform work related to highway construction, repair, or maintenance with a specific return-to-work date verified by the employer. The bill changes the defined term to “short-term seasonal or temporary layoff”, provides that conditions other than weather conditions are included in the definition, and strikes the language that the work to be performed must be related to highway construction, repair, or maintenance and must have a specific return-to-work date verified by the employer. The bill provides that benefits shall not be denied to an eligible individual for refusing to accept work if the individual has a reasonable expectation that the individual will be returning to employment, as defined by the department by rule, and is attached to a regular job or industry or is a member in good standing of a union therein eligible for referral for employment. To be considered attached to a regular job or industry, an individual must be on a short-term seasonal or temporary layoff. The bill provides that benefits shall not be denied to an eligible individual for refusing to accept work if the individual is unemployed due to the individual’s employer temporarily ceasing operations or going out of business at the factory, establishment, or other premises at which the individual was last employed; the reason for the employer going out of business was a result of unforeseen circumstances; and the individual has a reasonable expectation that the individual will be returning to employment with the employer that temporarily ceased operations or went out of business. | In Committee |
| SF223 | A bill for an act appropriating moneys to the department of health and human services for refugee resettlement assistance. | This bill appropriates $2.5 million for FY 2024-2025 from the general fund of the state to the department of health and human services (HHS) to distribute to nonprofit resettlement agencies (agency) participating in the reception and placement assistance program under the United States department of state to provide resettlement assistance to refugees in Iowa. HHS shall distribute the moneys proportionally to each agency based on the number of refugees the agency sponsors under the cooperative agreement. The bill takes effect upon enactment, and HHS shall distribute the moneys no later than seven calendar days after enactment. | In Committee |
| SF230 | A bill for an act relating to towing or impounding vehicles, and making penalties applicable. | This bill regulates towing and impounding motor vehicles. The bill requires a person who tows a vehicle without the owner’s consent to post certain signs on private property where the person is authorized to tow vehicles, document the towing with photographs, and maintain records relating to each tow. The bill requires a person to cease an incomplete tow if the vehicle owner arrives, and prohibits a person from charging a fee for more than one-half of the amount that would be charged for a consensual tow. A vehicle owner must pay the fee before the person towing the vehicle is required to release the vehicle to the owner. After towing a vehicle without the owner’s consent, the person who towed the vehicle must notify the owner and the local law enforcement agency, display towing and impound rates, provide an itemized account with fees not exceeding the amount the person charges for a consensual tow or the reasonable storage costs, allow the owner to recover personal property from within the vehicle, accept payment by credit card, and reimburse the vehicle owner for any damage to the vehicle caused during the tow. The bill prohibits a person from towing a vehicle without the owner’s consent unless the person is responding to a request for a tow. A person who tows a vehicle must reimburse the vehicle owner for all costs associated with the tow if the person does not comply with the bill. In addition to the reimbursement and any criminal penalty, the person must also pay the vehicle owner an amount not less than four times the sum of the towing and storage fees. The bill’s provisions relating to the towing of a vehicle without the owner’s consent do not apply to abandoned vehicles. Code sections 321.89 and 321.90 regulate the taking into custody and the disposal of abandoned vehicles, as defined in Code section 321.89. The bill amends certain provisions regarding required notices and information relating to an abandoned vehicle, the timeline to inspect or reclaim a vehicle, the reclamation of personal property from within an abandoned vehicle, and the disposal of an abandoned vehicle, and requires an opportunity for a person to inspect an abandoned vehicle. The bill reduces the period of time within which an entity that takes custody of an abandoned vehicle is required to send notice that the vehicle has been taken into custody from no more than 20 days to no more than 5 days after taking custody of the vehicle. The bill increases the reclaiming period for a person who receives notice from 10 days to 20 days after notice is received. The bill requires an entity with control of an abandoned vehicle to provide an itemized account of all fees assessed when a vehicle is reclaimed, to allow access for persons to inspect the vehicle and share information about the vehicle, if requested, and to provide notice of such. The reclaiming period is extended by 5 days if an entity fails to provide requested information or allow an inspection of the vehicle. Under current law, persons who receive notice regarding an abandoned vehicle lose their right to the vehicle and personal property within the vehicle after the expiration of the reclaiming period. The bill provides that if proper, timely notice is not provided, any known claimant does not forfeit the right to reclaim the vehicle or personal property. Current law requires a person to pay all towing preservation and storage charges resulting from placing an abandoned vehicle in custody prior to reclaiming the vehicle or personal property. The bill requires all such charges to be reasonable, and authorizes a person to reclaim personal property from a vehicle during the normal business hours of the entity with custody of the vehicle at no cost and without reclaiming the vehicle. The bill requires an entity that sells an abandoned vehicle to pay a lienholder, if applicable, the amount remaining on the vehicle loan if the vehicle is sold and the entity that took it into custody failed to provide required notices and an opportunity to inspect and reclaim the vehicle and personal property, as applicable. By operation of law, it is a simple misdemeanor for a person to do an act forbidden or to fail to perform an act required by Code chapter 321, including the provisions of the bill. A simple misdemeanor is punishable by confinement for no more than 30 days and a fine of at least $105 but not more than $855. | In Committee |
| SF122 | A bill for an act relating to the eligibility of children of a minor parent for the state child care assistance program. | This bill relates to the eligibility of children of a minor parent for the state child care assistance (CCA) program. The bill allows the children of at least one minor parent to be automatically eligible for CCA irrespective of other eligibility requirements. The bill prohibits the department of health and human services from applying waiting list requirements to the children for the purposes of CCA. | In Committee |
| SF131 | A bill for an act relating to evidence-based maternal and infant home visiting services. | This bill requires the department of health and human services to engage in a cross-agency collaboration with the department of education to identify and leverage funding sources and opportunities, including Medicaid, to expand evidence-based home visiting services for women and infants that promote healthy pregnancies, positive birth outcomes, and healthy infant growth and development. The departments shall involve key stakeholders in designing evidence-based home visiting services for women prenatally, throughout the pregnancy, and postpartum, and shall include mental and physical health, social, educational, and other services and interventions. The departments may conduct a feasibility study to consider options to increase Medicaid coverage and funding of evidence-based home visiting services, either through a state plan amendment or waiver. The department of health and human services shall seek federal approval of any Medicaid state plan amendment or waiver necessary to administer the bill.

| SF134 | A bill for an act requiring employers to provide reasonable accommodations to employees based on pregnancy or childbirth and providing civil penalties. | This bill requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations to employees based on pregnancy or childbirth. The bill requires an employer to provide reasonable accommodations to an employee based on medical conditions related to the employee’s pregnancy or childbirth if the employee requests reasonable accommodations with the advice of the employee’s health care provider. The bill defines “reasonable accommodations” as actions which would permit an employee with a medical condition relating to the employee’s pregnancy or childbirth to perform in a reasonable manner the activities involved in the employee’s specific occupation and include but are not limited to the provision of an accessible worksite, acquisition or modification of equipment, job restructuring, and a modified work schedule. The bill provides that “reasonable accommodations” does not mean any action that would impose an undue hardship on the business of the employer from whom the action is requested. The bill provides that an employer who violates the bill is subject to a civil penalty of up to $750. The director of the Iowa office of civil rights shall adopt rules to enforce the bill and provide exemptions where reasonable. The director or director’s representative upon presenting appropriate credentials to the person in charge may inspect employment records relating to the total number of employees and pregnant employees or employees recovering from childbirth and the services provided to pregnant employees or employees recovering from childbirth, as well as interview an employer, operator, owner, agent, or employee during working hours or at other reasonable times. The bill provides that compliance with minimum standards required by the bill shall not be subject to or considered in collective bargaining. | In Committee |
| SF157 | A bill for an act relating to the maximum amount of unemployment benefits payable during a benefit year. | This bill provides that the maximum total amount of unemployment benefits payable to an eligible individual during a benefit year shall not exceed 26 times the individual’s weekly benefit amount, rather than 16 times the weekly benefit amount as provided under current law. | In Committee |
| SF147 | A bill for an act relating to wage payment collection issues arising between employers and employees, providing penalties and remedies, and including effective date provisions. | This bill relates to the collection of wages from employers by employees under Code chapter 91A, the “Iowa Wage Payment Collection Law”. The bill provides that an employer has the burden to establish that a deduction from employees’ wages is lawful and that the employer must obtain written authorization for the deduction from the employee in advance. The bill removes the requirement that an employer be notified by the director of the department of inspections, appeals, and licensing before the employer is required to fulfill requirements relating to employee wage and benefit information. The bill requires an employer to notify employees in writing whose wages are determined based on a task, piece, mile, or load basis about the method used to calculate wages and when wages are earned. The bill establishes a rebuttable presumption that an employer did not pay the minimum wage if the employer does not maintain proper payroll records. The bill requires an employer to provide to each employee a statement of the employee’s earnings, deductions made, and as applicable the following: for an employee paid hourly, the number of hours worked during the pay period; for an employee paid on a percentage of sales or revenue generated, a list of sales or amount of revenue during the pay period; and for an employee paid based on the number of miles or loads performed, the applicable number performed during the pay period. The bill provides that when any specified violation of Code chapter 91A occurs, even if unintentional, an employer shall be liable for unpaid wages or expenses plus liquidated damages, court costs, and attorney fees incurred in recovering wages. The bill requires the director to employ wage investigators for the enforcement of Code chapter 91A. The bill requires the director, upon the written complaint of the employee involved, to determine whether wages have not been paid and may constitute an enforceable claim. Under current law, making such a determination is discretionary. The bill increases the period after which the director is prohibited from accepting complaints for unpaid wages and liquidated damages to three years from the date the wages became due and payable. Under current law, the period is one year from that date. Prohibitions on retaliatory actions by employers or others are expanded to cover persons other than employees who act under Code chapter 91A with respect to an employee. A 90-day period is established during which any action against an employee or other person is rebuttably presumed to be retaliatory. The bill allows the director or any injured party to maintain a civil action in any court of proper jurisdiction. An employer who retaliates against an employee or other person shall compensate the injured party an amount set by the director or the court, but not less than $150 for each day of the violation. The bill modifies language relating to procedures for the director to impose civil penalties on an employer for violations of Code chapter 91A by making certain actions by the director mandatory. The bill provides that if an employer inadvertently violates the provisions of Code chapter 91A or the rules adopted pursuant to Code chapter 91A, the employer shall not be subject to certain penalty provisions provided in Code chapter 91A if certain conditions are met. The first condition is that the director determines that the violation was inadvertent and that the employer attempted in good faith to comply with the provisions of Code chapter 91A and the rules adopted pursuant to Code chapter 91A. The second condition is that the director, after considering any history of violations by the employer, determines that the violation was isolated in nature. The third condition is that the employer corrects the violation to the satisfaction of the director within 14 days of the occurrence of the violation. The bill prohibits an employer from requiring an individual to be a current employee to be paid an earned commission. The bill stipulates that a provision of Code chapter 91A shall not apply to any employer or employee if such provision would conflict with federal law or regulation. The bill requires the director to provide for the notification of each employer in Iowa of the requirements for employers provided in the bill by September 1, 2025. Such notification shall include suggested forms and procedures that employers may use for purposes of compliance with the notice and recordkeeping requirements of Code chapter 91A as amended by the bill. An employer who violates Code chapter 91A is subject to a civil penalty of not more than $500 per pay period for each violation. The bill, except for the provision providing for notification of employees in Iowa by the director, takes effect January 1, 2026. | In Committee |
| SF132 | A bill for an act relating to Medicaid coverage of maternity care including doula care. | This bill relates to maternal and child health improvements under the Medicaid program by directing the department of health and human services (HHS) under both fee-for-service and managed care administration of Medicaid to adopt rules pursuant to Code chapter 17A, amend any contract with a managed care organization, and apply for any Medicaid state plan amendment or waiver as may be necessary to provide maternity care including doula care as defined in the bill. The bill provides that HHS, in collaboration with stakeholders, shall establish a certification and participating provider enrollment process for doulas, and a reimbursement rate for doula services. | In Committee |
| SF133 | A bill for an act relating to the provision of period products. | This bill requires period products to be available at no cost in certain buildings, institutions, and facilities under the control of the state and in schools. The bill requires that the entity with authority over a state building shall ensure period products are available, at no cost, in the restrooms of the state building. The bill requires institutions controlled by the director of the department of health and human services to make period products available, at no cost, to residents or patients of the institutions in locations and as appropriate to the health care needs of the residents or patients, and to staff and the public, in the restrooms of the institutions. The bill requires the superintendent of the school for the deaf to make period products available, at no cost, to students, staff, and the public in the restrooms of school buildings and of each campus building frequented by students, staff, and the public. The bill requires the board of directors of each public school district and the authorities in charge of each nonpublic school to ensure that period products are available, at no cost, to students, staff, and the public in the restrooms of school buildings. Subject to funding appropriated for this purpose, the department of education shall reimburse each public school for the reasonable cost of providing period products. The bill requires the department of corrections to ensure period products are available to offenders committed to the institutions at no cost and in a quantity and as appropriate to the health care needs of the individual offender. The bill also requires the department of corrections to ensure period products are available, at no cost, to staff and the public, in the restrooms of institutions. For the purposes of the bill, “period products” means tampons and period pads for use in connection with the menstrual cycle. | In Committee |
| SF123 | A bill for an act relating to funding of approved local preschool programs and including applicability provisions. | The amount of state funding for each school district’s approved local program under Code chapter 256C is determined using a preschool budget enrollment that is equal to 50 percent of the actual enrollment of eligible students in the preschool programming provided by a school district on October 1 of the base year. This bill changes the preschool budget enrollment used to determine funding to an amount equal to 100 percent of the actual enrollment of eligible students in the preschool programming provided by a school district on October 1 of the base year. The bill also modifies the funding calculation for the initial school year for which a school district is approved to participate in the program. The bill applies to school budget years beginning on or after July 1, 2026. | In Committee |
| SF58 | A bill for an act relating to school lunch and breakfast programs provided by school districts, accredited nonpublic schools, charter schools, and innovation zone schools, making appropriations, and including effective date provisions. | This bill relates to school lunch and breakfast programs provided by school districts, accredited nonpublic schools, charter schools, and innovation zone schools (schools). For the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2026, the bill requires each school to operate a program under which breakfasts and lunches are served to students in attendance at no charge to the student or the student’s family if the student’s family has a family income that is less than or equal to 300 percent of the federal poverty level. For the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 30, 2027, the bill requires each school to operate such a program if the student’s family has a family income that is less than or equal to 400 percent of the federal poverty level. For the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2027, and for each fiscal year thereafter, the bill requires each school to operate such a program regardless of the income of the student’s family. The bill appropriates from the general fund of the state to the department of education an amount necessary to make the payments to schools necessary to cover the costs of providing free school lunches and school breakfasts that are not covered by any Act of Congress and appropriated to the state of Iowa for use in connection with school breakfast or lunch programs. The bill requires the state board of education to adopt rules to administer these provisions. The bill makes conforming changes. The bill takes effect upon enactment. | In Committee |
| SF124 | A bill for an act relating to the issuance of a subpoena or search warrant for menstrual health data. | This bill relates to the issuance of a subpoena or search warrant for menstrual health data. The bill provides that no subpoena shall be issued or served for the purpose of seeking menstrual health data as defined in Code section 808.2(2). Code section 808.2 currently provides that a search warrant may be issued for property which has been obtained in violation of law; for the unlawful possession of property; for property used or possessed to commit a public offense or to conceal an offense from being discovered; or for any other property relevant and material as evidence in a criminal prosecution. The bill provides that no search warrant shall be issued for the search and seizure of menstrual health data stored on a computer, computer network, or other device containing electronic or digital information. The bill defines “menstrual health data” as any information, recorded in any form or medium, that is created or received by an entity that relates to or is used to determine, predict, or estimate the past, present, or future menstrual health or menstrual status of an individual. | In Committee |
| SF130 | A bill for an act relating to health insurance coverage for infertility. | This bill relates to health insurance coverage for the diagnosis of and treatment for infertility, and standard fertility preservation services (preservation services). The bill requires a policy, contract, or plan (plan) providing for third-party payment or prepayment of health or medical expenses to provide coverage for the diagnosis of and treatment for infertility, and for preservation services. “Diagnosis of and treatment for infertility”, “infertility”, and “standard fertility preservation services” are defined in the bill. Required coverage includes up to three completed oocyte retrievals with unlimited embryo transfers, using single embryo transfer if recommended and medically appropriate. Coverage of fertility medications shall not be less favorable than coverage for any other prescription medications under the plan. Deductibles, copayments, coinsurance, benefit maximums, waiting periods, or other limitations on coverage for the diagnosis of and treatment for infertility and preservation services shall not be any less favorable than those imposed on benefits for services covered under the plan that are not related to infertility. The bill provides an exception for a religious employer to request an exclusion from the required coverage and requires the religious employer to provide notice to employees of the exclusion. The bill applies to third-party payment provider contracts, policies, or plans delivered, issued for delivery, continued, or renewed in this state on or after July 1, 2025, by the third-party payment providers enumerated in the bill.

| SF109 | A bill for an act relating to a family leave and medical leave insurance program that provides for paid, job-protected leave for certain family leave and medical leave reasons for eligible employees of specified employers. | This bill relates to a family leave and medical leave insurance program (program), administered by the director of the department of workforce development, that provides for paid, job-protected leave for certain family leave and medical leave reasons for eligible employees of specified employers. An employee is eligible for family leave and medical leave after working for a covered employer, as defined in the bill, for a minimum of 12 consecutive months and a minimum of 1,250 hours during the 12 consecutive-month period immediately preceding the employee’s request for leave. “Family leave” and “medical leave” are defined in the bill. Family leave includes leave to care for an immediate family member with a serious health condition, to bond with a newborn child or adopted or foster child, or for a qualifying exigency for a family member as permitted under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, as amended (FMLA). Medical leave includes leave due to the employee’s own serious health condition. “Serious health condition” is defined in the bill. The bill provides that an eligible employee may not receive more than 12 weeks of family leave, 12 weeks of medical leave, or 16 weeks of combined family and medical leave in a defined consecutive 12-month period. The defined consecutive 12-month period begins on the date of the birth of a child or placement of a child for adoption or foster care with an eligible employee, or on the first date that an eligible employee takes either family leave or medical leave. The minimum duration of leave an eligible employee may take is eight consecutive hours. The bill disqualifies an employee from family leave and medical leave benefits under circumstances detailed in the bill. An employee must provide a minimum of 30 days’ notice to an employer of the employee’s intent to take leave. If circumstances require an employee’s leave to begin in less than 30 days, the employee must give as much notice as is practicable. If an eligible employee requests medical leave or family leave, the employee must make a reasonable effort to schedule their own, or their family member’s, medical treatment to not unduly disrupt the employer’s operations. The bill requires an eligible employee to file a claim for benefits as required by the director. The employee must consent to the disclosure of private or confidential information to and from the department, and the employee’s employer, for administration of the leave. The bill specifies that such information is not a public record pursuant to Code section 22.1. The employee must attest that the employee has provided notice of intent to take leave to the employee’s employer. The employee must also authorize the employee’s, or the employee’s family member’s health care provider, to complete a certification of a serious health condition. The bill provides for a seven-day waiting period before benefits are payable. There is no waiting period for benefits for leave for the birth of a child or placement of a child for adoption or foster care. The basis for the calculation of the amount of a family leave or medical leave benefit is an eligible employee’s weekly earnings as defined in the bill. The weekly leave benefit amount payable to an employee is detailed in the bill. The department must send the first benefit payment to an eligible employee within 10 days after a properly completed weekly claim for benefits is received by the department. If the employee continues to submit a properly completed weekly claim, subsequent payments are to be made at least biweekly. If an employer, or the department, contests an employee’s eligibility, benefit payments may be made on a conditional basis. The employee is required to pay the benefits back if the department later rules that the employee is ineligible for the benefits. The bill provides that the program shall be funded via employee and employer contributions. Beginning on January 1, 2029, and ending on December 31, 2030, the department must assess a covered employer a premium rate of four-tenths of one percent of an employee’s weekly wages, subject to a maximum as determined by the director based on the maximum wages subject to taxation for social security. One-third of the premium is to be used to fund family leave insurance benefits and two-thirds of the premium is to be used to fund medical leave benefits. A covered employer may deduct up to 45 percent of the medical leave premium and 45 percent of the family leave premium from an employee’s wage. The employer must pay the remaining 55 percent of both the medical leave and family leave premiums, and may elect to pay all or any portion of its employees’ share of such premiums. Beginning January 1, 2031, the premium rate shall be calculated by the director based on the family leave and medical leave insurance account balance ratio as of September 30 of the previous calendar year. The premium rate is adjusted based on the balance ratio as detailed in the bill. On September 30 of each year, the bill requires the department to average the number of employees reported by an employer over the last four completed calendar quarters to determine if the employer is a covered employer for the next calendar year. The bill requires a covered employer to collect all assessed premiums and surcharges from the employer’s employees through payroll deduction and to remit all premiums to the department as required by the director. An employer may apply for, and the director must grant, a waiver of premiums for an employee who is located physically outside of the state and not expected to work in the state for 1,250 or more hours in any consecutive 12-month period. If the employee subsequently works 1,250 or more hours within the state, the employer and employee are responsible for all premiums that should have been collected. Self-employed persons may elect to participate in the program as detailed in the bill. An eligible employee who takes family leave or medical leave is entitled to restoration of employment equal to but not greater than that provided by FMLA. The bill provides that if required under FMLA, an employer must maintain any existing health benefits during an employee’s leave. If the employer and employee normally share the cost of such, the employee is responsible for paying the employee’s share of the costs. A covered employer must submit reports as required by the director and maintain employment records for each employee from which the director may obtain information related to an employee’s leave. Such records must be maintained for 10 years. The bill provides that family leave or medical leave shall be in addition to leave required under state or federal law for sickness or temporary disability due to pregnancy or childbirth. The bill requires family leave or medical leave taken under this program to be taken concurrently with leave taken under FMLA. A covered employer may allow an employee to choose to use either accrued sick or vacation benefits, or family leave and medical leave benefits. An employee cannot receive family or medical leave benefits at the same time the employee is receiving state or federal unemployment, workers’ compensation, or disability benefits. The bill prohibits discrimination on the basis of any state or federally protected category. The bill requires the director to administer the program and to provide outreach to ensure that employers and employees are aware of the program and the benefits available under such. The bill provides that a family leave and medical leave insurance account shall be created in the custody of the treasurer of state. The director shall deposit all premiums collected from employers into such account and the account can only be used for the program as authorized by the director. The bill requires the director to adopt rules to implement and administer the provisions of the bill. The director may take any action under the director’s authority to enforce compliance with the bill. The director is required to analyze the funding of the program and the benefits payable from the program’s account. The director shall determine if the premium rates and the benefit levels are appropriate to fully fund and maintain the solvency of the program. The director must submit the findings to the general assembly no later than January 12, 2026. | In Committee |
| SF66 | A bill for an act relating to testimony by certain witnesses by two-way closed-circuit equipment. | This bill relates to testimony by certain witnesses by two-way closed-circuit equipment. The bill provides that upon its own motion or upon motion of any party, a court may protect a minor up to 18 years of age from trauma caused by testifying in the physical presence of the defendant where it would impair the minor’s ability to communicate, by ordering that the testimony of the minor be taken in a room other than the courtroom and be televised by two-way closed-circuit equipment for viewing in the courtroom. Current law does not specify that the closed-circuit equipment be two-way. Upon a finding of necessity, the court may also allow the testimony of a victim or witness with a mental illness, an intellectual disability, or other developmental disability to be taken by two-way closed-circuit equipment regardless of the age of the victim or witness. | In Committee |
| SF63 | A bill for an act relating to the creation of an Iowa cancer research program, and making an appropriation. | This bill relates to the creation of an Iowa cancer research program.

Of the funds appropriated, $1.25 million is allocated for each of the following: pediatric cancer research, cancer prevention research, and basic cancer research. HHS shall use requests for proposals to select projects at public institutions of higher education located in the state related to each type of research. The bill includes criteria to be used by HHS in selecting individual projects and authorizes HHS to utilize up to 5 percent of the moneys appropriated for administrative costs associated with the Iowa cancer research program. | In Committee |
