2019 Iowa Legislative Session Has Ended
Lawmakers wrapped up the 2019 legislative session on Saturday, April 27. Although the bankers were trying to propose a tax increase and membership and borrowing restrictions, no harmful credit union legislation was passed.

More good news is that Senate File 475 passed and was signed into law on Monday, April 29 by Governor Reynolds. Senate File 475 allows notarizations to take place electronically, starting July of 2020. This idea was a final concept during the 2017 Iowa Innovation Group, and IIG alumni advocated for the bill during session. Click here to read the final version of the bill along with the signed letter by Governor Reynolds.

The Governor has thirty days from the end of session to either sign or veto bills. The PolicyWorks Iowa team will continue to grow their relationships with Iowa legislators, and will be reaching out to credit unions to get input on next year’s legislative priorities.
