| HF127 | A bill for an act relating to county supervisors, concerning county supervisor representation plans and county supervisor vacancies, and including effective date provisions.(See HF 786.) | This bill concerns county supervisor representation plans and county supervisor vacancies. DIVISION I —— PLAN “THREE” COUNTY SUPERVISOR REPRESENTATION PLANS AND SPECIAL ELECTIONS. The bill requires a county with either a population of 125,000 or more based on the most recent federal decennial census or the main campus of an institution of higher learning governed by the state board of regents to use plan “three” for the election of county supervisors. Plan “three” requires individual members of the board of supervisors for that county to be elected from single-member, equal-population districts. The bill provides that such counties that do not use plan “three” for the election of supervisors as of the effective date of the bill must submit a precinct plan to the state commissioner of elections by October 1. The legislative services agency must draw the representation plan, in conformity with the provisions of law governing the adoption of a plan “three” representation plan, for use by such counties to elect supervisors under plan “three” during the 2026 general election. The bill requires special elections for the purpose of selecting a supervisor representation plan to be held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, rather than the first Tuesday in August. In accordance with Code section 39.2 (special elections), a special election may be held on the same day as a regularly scheduled election. The bill also requires a new representation plan, if a plan “two” or “three” is approved at the special election, to be completed not later than December 31, rather than November 1. Such a plan will still take effect the following January 1. The bill fixes an internal subsection reference that was inadvertently not updated when Code section 331.207 was renumbered for the 2019 Code. DIVISION II —— COUNTY SUPERVISOR VACANCIES. The bill requires vacancies on the board of supervisors to be filled by special election in a county with either a population of 125,000 or more or the main campus of an institution of higher learning governed by the state board of regents. Current law allows for vacancies to be filled by appointment under certain circumstances. The bill requires vacancies to be filled by appointment in a county with a population of less than 125,000 that does not include an institution of higher learning governed by the state board of regents in accordance with current law, including a vacancy that is treated as a resignation due to the physical or mental status of a supervisor. DIVISION III —— EFFECTIVE DATE. The bill takes effect upon enactment. | In Committee |
| HF139 | A bill for an act relating to filing applications and custody of the respondent in an involuntary commitment proceeding.(See HF 573.) | This bill relates to filing applications and custody of a respondent in an involuntary commitment proceeding. The bill allows any interested person to commence an involuntary commitment substance abuse proceeding by filing a verified application in any county. If a verified application is filed in a district court of a county where the respondent is not located and does not reside, the court must transfer jurisdiction of the case to the district court of the county where the respondent is presently located or where the respondent resides. Under current law, if a person has been ordered by a court to receive treatment for a substance use disorder or a serious mental impairment and the person leaves the county where the person was ordered to receive treatment without completing the treatment and without prior authorization, the sheriffs and peace officers (officers) in the county where the person is currently located may not have the authority to take the person into custody for placement in a hospital or facility (facility) to receive treatment. The bill authorizes officers to take a person into custody in any county in which the person is found for placement at a facility to receive court-ordered treatment. The bill directs the supreme court to adopt rules to implement the bill. The bill makes a conforming change to Code section 229.14B. | In Committee |
| HF244 | A bill for an act relating to the offense of intentional misrepresentation of an animal as a service animal or service-animal-in-training.(See HF 615.) | This bill relates to the offense of intentional misrepresentation of an animal as a service animal or service-animal-in-training. Under current law, a person commits the offense of intentional misrepresentation of an animal as a service animal or a service-animal-in-training if the three following elements are established: (1) the person intentionally misrepresents an animal in one’s possession as one’s service animal or service-animal-in-training or a person with a disability’s service animal or service-animal-in-training whom the person is assisting by controlling to obtain any of the rights or privileges set forth in law for such animals, (2) the person was previously given a written or verbal warning regarding the fact that it is illegal to intentionally misrepresent an animal, and (3) the person knows that the animal in question is not a service animal or a service-animal-in-training. The bill strikes the second and third elements. A person who commits the offense of intentional misrepresentation of an animal as a service animal or service-animal-in-training commits a simple misdemeanor. 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 |

| HF920 | A bill for an act relating to the double up food bucks program and making an appropriation. | This bill relates to the double up food bucks program by making a supplemental appropriation from the general fund of the state to the department of health and human services (HHS) for fiscal year 2025-2026, in addition to any other funding appropriated for such purpose for the same fiscal year, to provide grants to support the double up food bucks program administered by the Iowa healthiest state initiative to make fresh fruits and vegetables sold at farmers markets, grocery stores, and other participating locations accessible to individuals and families who reside in this state and receive assistance through the federal supplemental nutrition assistance program. Beginning January 1, 2026, HHS, in cooperation with the Iowa healthiest state initiative, shall submit an annual report to the general assembly that provides information related to the double up food bucks program including the number of participants, the participating locations, and the annual redemption amount and rate. Moneys appropriated under the bill do not revert at the close of the fiscal year but remain available for the purposes of the double up food bucks program. | In Committee |
| HF234 | A bill for an act establishing the armed forces reserve component scholarship program within the college student aid commission.(See HF 837.) | This bill establishes the armed forces reserve component scholarship program within the college student aid commission for members of the reserve forces of the United States armed forces who are enrolled as full-time students in an eligible institution. The bill provides that a qualified student who is enrolled as a full-time student in an eligible institution may receive a scholarship under the program for not more than the equivalent of eight semesters of study. If the eligible student is enrolled in a community college, the amount of the eligible student’s scholarship shall not exceed the lesser of the eligible student’s financial need or 100 percent of the resident tuition and mandatory fees charged by the community college. If the eligible student is enrolled in an institution of higher learning under the control of the state board of regents, or an accredited private institution, the amount of the eligible student’s scholarship shall not exceed the lesser of the eligible student’s financial need or 100 percent of the average resident tuition and mandatory fees for undergraduate study charged by the institutions of higher learning. The bill provides that if the amount appropriated in a fiscal year is insufficient to provide scholarships to all who apply for the program and who are determined to be eligible for the program, the commission shall determine the distribution of scholarships. The bill provides that if an eligible student discontinues attendance before the end of any semester, or the equivalent, after receiving scholarship payments, the entire amount of any refund due to that eligible student, up to the full amount of all of the annual scholarship payments made, shall be paid by the eligible institution to the commission. This provision does not apply to an eligible student who discontinues attendance due to the eligible student being ordered to active duty. Scholarship awards under the program are required to be paid to the eligible institution by the commission upon receipt of certification by the eligible institution as to the accuracy of charges made and as to the attendance and academic progress of the eligible student at the eligible institution. The bill requires the commission to maintain an annual record of the number of participants in the program and the dollar value of the scholarship awards issued. The bill provides that a member of a reserve component of the army, navy, air force, marine corps, coast guard, or space force of the United States, located in this state, is ineligible for a scholarship award under the program if the member has met the educational requirements for a baccalaureate degree or if the member was discharged from any branch of the armed forces under other than honorable conditions. If an eligible student is ordered to active duty during the time in which the eligible student is enrolled in an eligible institution and receiving scholarship awards under the program, the commission is authorized to waive or modify any statutory or regulatory provision applicable to the program to ensure that the eligible student is able to utilize any scholarships awarded to the eligible student under the program within five years after the eligible student’s enlistment obligation in a reserve component of the armed forces ends, and to ensure that administrative requirements placed on the eligible student are minimized, to the extent possible. The bill requires the commission to adopt rules to administer the program. The bill defines “active duty”, “commission”, “eligible institution”, “eligible student”, “financial need”, and “full-time”. | In Committee |
| HF119 | A bill for an act modifying provisions related to content specialist authorizations and career and technical secondary authorizations issued by the board of educational examiners and including applicability provisions. | This bill modifies provisions related to content specialist authorizations and career and technical secondary authorizations issued by the board of educational examiners (BOEE). Current law requires the BOEE to adopt rules to provide for nontraditional preparation options for licensing persons who hold a bachelor’s degree or higher from an accredited or state-approved college or university, who do not meet other requirements for licensure. In accordance with this provision, the BOEE has established by rule a content specialist authorization, which is provided to applicants who have not completed a teacher preparation program but who hold a master’s degree or higher in an endorsement area. The bill provides that such rules shall not require an individual who holds a master’s degree or higher in an endorsement area to convert the initial content specialist authorization to a content specialist authorization. Instead, the individual may continue to teach under the initial content specialist authorization after the initial three-year period so long as the individual is working under the direction of a mentor teacher who holds a content specialist authorization. These provisions apply to individuals who apply to the BOEE for an initial content specialist authorization before, on, or after the effective date of the bill. Current law requires the BOEE to adopt rules related to career and technical secondary authorizations. The bill provides that such rules shall not require an individual who has an initial career and technical secondary authorization to convert the initial career and technical secondary authorization to a career and technical secondary authorization. Instead, the individual may continue to teach under the initial career and technical secondary authorization after the initial three-year period so long as the individual is working under the direction of an individual who has a career and technical secondary authorization. The bill also provides that such rules shall require the BOEE to issue an initial career and technical secondary authorization to an applicant who is a community college-employed instructor who meets the requirements established in Code section 260C.48 (standards for accrediting community college programs). These provisions apply to individuals who apply to the BOEE for an initial career and technical secondary authorization before, on, or after the effective date of the bill. | In Committee |
| HF736 | A bill for an act relating to the installation of transmission lines on highway rights-of-way. | This bill relates to the installation of transmission lines on highway rights-of-way. Under current law, the general assembly encourages proactive coordination between the department of transportation (DOT), local governments, utility companies, and other affected parties to minimize costs and avoid relocating utilities during highway construction. Affected parties are invited to participate in development meetings. However, failure to participate during the design phase does not prevent a construction project from moving forward. The bill requires the DOT, upon written request, to engage in coordination activities with a utility or transmission line developer to review highway corridors identified in the request for potential locations to place transmission lines. The DOT must share all known plans with affected utility or transmission line developers on planned future projects in the highway corridor if the planned highway project impacts the placement or siting of transmission lines. Under current law, the DOT is required to adopt administrative rules embodying a utility accommodation policy imposing reasonable restrictions on utility line placements on primary road rights-of-way. The bill prohibits the DOT from denying longitudinal transmission line installations extending any distance on a primary road right-of-way unless the DOT determines such an installation would endanger public safety or interfere with the proper function of the highway. The DOT must make the reasons for denying the installation of a longitudinal transmission line available to the public within 90 days. The DOT was previously required to develop an accommodation plan for the longitudinal utility use of freeway right-of-way, in consultation with the utilities commission. The DOT must also provide for extended payment and lease agreements to provide continuous funding for the living roadway trust fund. The bill strikes the requirement that the agreements be “extended” and the funding be “continuous” and instead prohibits the DOT from providing for payment and lease agreements for a term that exceeds 20 years. Current law requires transmission lines to be constructed near and parallel to roads, highways, and railways. The bill adds to the designated locations for transmission lines to be constructed within the right-of-way beside roads, highways, and railways. The lines must not interfere with the use by the public of the highways or streams, nor unnecessarily interfere with the use of any lands by the occupant. | In Committee |

| HF633 | A bill for an act concerning county recorder policies and procedures including the imposition of fees and the establishment of funds, and including transition and effective date provisions. | This bill relates to certain required document criteria to file documents and instruments with county recorders, fees paid for recording documents, funds created for recorders and the electronic services system and associated authorization for spending moneys in those funds for certain purposes, the creation of the electronic services system, organized by an agreement pursuant to Code chapter 28E (28E agreement), and the electronic filing system used to accept, manage, and make available county recorder filings electronically. Under current law, county recorders are required to execute a 28E agreement with other counties to implement a county land record information system in accordance with 2005 Iowa Acts, chapter 179, section 101, subsection 1, as amended by 2021 Iowa Acts, chapter 126, section 2. The bill amends this provision to require county recorders to enter into a 28E agreement to create and implement the electronic services system, a statewide electronic county land record management system. The bill defines “electronic services system” as the organization formed under the 28E agreement. The electronic services system is also the name of the actual electronic system implemented to accept, manage, and make available records filed with a county recorder. Several sections of Code chapter 331, subchapter V, part 3, pertaining to the county recorder are amended to specify certain requirements for documents or instruments submitted to a county recorder for filing either in person or electronically. Many of these requirements pertain to required recording references, indexing, formatting, text, margin sizes, and document size limitations with an emphasis on legibility. References to the county land record information system are removed throughout Code chapter 331 and replaced with “electronic services system”. Under current law, in addition to the $5 county recorders collect for each page of a document or instrument filed in the county recorder’s office, $1 is collected for the county recorder’s records management fund, and $1 is collected for the county recorder’s electronic transaction fund. The bill changes the fees to a flat fee of $10 for each page filed or recorded in the recorder’s office, with a maximum recording fee of $500 for 50 or more pages filed. From the total fee of $10 per page of a document or instrument filed with a recorder, $2 is transferred to the recorder’s technology advancement fund and $3 is transferred to the recorder’s electronic services system fund. The bill eliminates the county recorder’s records management funds and creates recorder’s technology advancement funds to be used for the following purposes: maintaining and improving equipment, software, and systems; preserving and maintaining archived physical and electronic documents or instruments; converting physical documents to electronic documents; and education and training for advancing technology. The bill eliminates the county recorder’s electronic transaction funds and creates recorder’s electronic services funds. By the first day of each month, the treasurer shall transfer the moneys deposited into the recorder’s electronic services system fund to an account in a financial institution designated by the governing board of the electronic services system to be used as outlined in new Code section 331.605B for the following purposes: to enable electronic filing for recording documents; to provide electronic access to recorded public documents; to receive electronic payments to process electronic documents for recording; to implement security and redaction systems to protect personally identifiable information; to integrate with other appropriate real property filing or management systems; to establish standards for processing, recording, indexing, accessing, and archiving documents for electronic county land record management systems; and to develop a notification system for users when electronic filings or records are associated with the user’s name, property, or other recorded filing information. The recorder or the electronic services system shall make available any information required by the county auditor or auditor of state concerning the moneys collected from fees and the uses for which such fees are expended. The county treasurer must transfer moneys remaining in the county recorder’s records management fund to the recorder’s technology advancement fund and moneys remaining in the county recorder’s electronic transaction fund to the recorder’s electronic services fund on the effective date of the bill. The bill provides that any moneys remaining in the local government electronic transaction fund after the effective date of the bill are appropriated to the treasurer of state to be used by the treasurer of state to assist the governing board of the electronic services system in accomplishing the purposes stated in Code section 331.605B(1). The electronic services system may collect a fee of not more than $3 per recorded document, along with any service charges associated with a credit or debit card payment, to receive and process a document or instrument. Moneys collected from these fees by the electronic services system must be used for the same purposes as the recorder’s electronic services fund. The electronic services system cannot charge a fee for viewing, accessing, or printing records and cannot provide access to records on a batch basis. The bill limits tort liability of government subdivisions by excluding contractors hired by the governing board of the electronic services systems from government employees. The bill creates a process for a county recorder to decline acceptance of a physical or electronic document and to provide information to the filer to correct the defect. A recorder’s ability to collect an additional recording fee of $10 per document to accept nonconforming documents is eliminated. The information required to be included by a recorder who is filing and indexing documents or instruments into the electronic county land record management system is outlined and includes how reference numbers must be determined and applied to filings each calendar year, the use of only numeric references containing no more than eight digits preceded by a county two-digit code and four-digit year, and indexing requirements for certain recorded documents associated with the recording. Additionally, the following shall be indexed if known: a parcel identification number; a legal description and parsed location information including platted and unplatted information; and any additional parcel identifiers used by a recorder. The indexing and recording requirements outlined in the bill take effect January 1, 2026. Additionally, a recorder must note in the index the exact hour, minute, and second a document or instrument is recorded. The bill provides for the recording of surveys in new Code section 331.612. Specific text sizing and formatting along with page sizing, index legend requirements, and other required information for surveys, plats, subdivision plats, and monument preservation certificates, with an emphasis on legibility, are provided. The recorder must accept a plat or subdivision plat that meets the requirements outlined in Code section 355.7, 355.7A, or 355.8 submitted electronically through the electronic services system. The bill also provides for the use of cover pages when submitting the information required in Code section 331.606B(2) and outlines the location on the first page where the information must be provided when filing a document with the county recorder along with providing guidelines for including designated space for a county recorder’s use. | In Committee |

| HF33 | A bill for an act establishing an agriculture education grant program within the department of education and making appropriations.(See HF 369.) | This bill establishes an agriculture education grant program within the department of education (DE) to expand student access to instruction related to agriculture, food, and natural resources. The bill defines “agriculture education program” as instructional programs provided by school districts to students enrolled in grades 9 through 12 in the agriculture, food, and natural resources portion of the career and technical education instruction and programs provided by school districts under Code section 280.20 (career and technical agriculture education), and “personal services costs” as the costs associated with a school district employing a teacher for a maximum of 60 days of additional instruction outside of the teacher’s regularly scheduled teaching duties to provide instruction in an agriculture education program. The bill authorizes school districts to apply to DE for grants under the program to offset the personal services costs associated with employing teachers to provide instruction in an agriculture education program. The department of education may award a grant to a school district under the program totaling 100 percent of the teacher’s personal services costs if the school district’s agriculture education program has existed for less than 10 consecutive years and totaling 50 percent of the teacher’s personal services costs for all other programs. School districts must use these moneys to supplement, not supplant, existing public funding used by a school district for similar purposes. The bill establishes an agriculture education grant program fund in the state treasury. The bill requires DE to develop and make available to school districts a statewide system to track the time teachers devote to instruction facilitated by grants provided under the program. The bill requires the state board of education to adopt rules to administer the program. | In Committee |
| HF111 | A bill for an act creating an advanced registered nurse practitioner preceptor tax credit available against the individual income tax, and including applicability provisions. | This bill creates an advanced registered nurse practitioner preceptor tax credit available against the individual income tax. The bill defines preceptor to mean an advanced registered nurse practitioner who is currently licensed as a registered nurse under Code chapter 152 or Code chapter 152E, and who is licensed by the board as an advanced registered nurse practitioner. The bill defines clinical preceptorship to mean a mentoring experience under the direction of a nursing program where a preceptor is used to provide a clinical learning experience for a student who is a resident enrolled in the nursing program. In order to be eligible for the tax credit under the bill, a preceptor must provide uncompensated instruction and supervision during a clinical preceptorship, be employed at the clinical facility where the preceptorship occurs, be selected by the nursing program in collaboration with the clinical facility to participate in the clinical preceptorship, and have at least one year of experience in the preceptor role. The amount of the tax credit equals $500 per clinical preceptorship where at least 100 hours of clinical learning experience is provided, not to exceed $2,000 in the aggregate. Any credit in excess of the tax liability is not refundable and shall not be credited to a following tax year or carried back to a previous tax year. The bill requires the preceptor to accurately document the student’s experience including the name of the student, the name of the nursing program, the hours of supervision, and the year of the student’s expected graduation. The department of revenue is required to adopt rules to administer the bill. The bill applies to tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2026. | In Committee |
