Thanks for taking our survey. Need a quick recap of the arguments FOR and AGAINST? Check beneath the survey.

\r\n

FOR

\r\n

Gov. Reynolds and the Republican legislature use the free market, individual property rights and reliance on the expertise of the farmers who know their land best to make decisions about clean water. Gov. Reynolds made a $282 million investment in water quality initiatives and created a water quality infrastructure fund within the state's Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship.The fund will be used to support conservation infrastructure on agricultural land, including things like wetlands, bioreactors, saturated buffers, terraces and waterways. The Republican legislature and the Governor have opposed giving local county supervisors the legal authority to regulate CAFOs (Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations).

\r\n

AGAINST

\r\n

Many Iowa associations working on conservation, environmental issues and economic development say the Republican legislature abandoned years of land stewardship, risking the loss of healthy and valuable topsoil, and lowering the quality of drinking water, all while rivers and lakes are too polluted to fish and swim (there were 12 closed state park beaches this summer.)

\r\n

Instead of increasing the cooperative approach between farmers and local governments when the Iowa legislature created the Leopold Center in 1987, they eliminated its funding for research and promotion of agriculture best practices. When Iowa voters took the extraordinary step of passing a constitutional amendment called the Iowa Water and Land Legacy (I-WILL) to fund land protection, the Governor and legislature chose to fund other Iowa priorities.

\r\n

More rivers and lakes are now labeled too polluted to use, more private wells are not tested for any pathogens, more nitrates are leaching into drinking water supplies and less money is allocated to increase water quality. While reducing the number of state-funded programs for many years, depleting attempts to control flooding, restoring soil health and protecting drinking water from agricultural chemical run-off, Governor Reynolds did spend $100 million from President Biden’s Infrastructure bill to fund clean water programs after calling out federal overreach and declining to use state funds.

Wind farm construction is a massive boon to rural counties. In 2022, seven of the top 10 counties in the USA with the largest GDP increases had significant recent wind farm construction. But wind farms sometimes generate complaints about their appearance and noise, and some critics object to the subsidies and tax abatements that local officials grant them. Some states have made it easier for local governments to block wind projects. In Ohio, under Senate Bill 52, county commissioners could reject particular wind turbines or solar farms, ban the projects entirely or carve out portions of the county where those facilities couldn't be built.

What do you think about an extra 7% at checkout?

Here's a little more background: Sales tax is imposed on the sales price of tangible personal property, specified digital products, or taxable services at the time the sale takes place. The seller is responsible for collecting, reporting, and remitting the sales tax. Iowa exempts some personal property, services and medicine.

The state sales tax in Iowa is 6% with a local option sales tax of 1% tacked on in many cities and counties for a total of 7%.

Should local governments like counties have the ability to control important decisions affecting land in their communities, or should the state/federal governments have greater control?

For this survey question:

\"Support\" means you believe government that is closest to the people, property and community affected should be making the decisions about specific uses of land.

\"Oppose\" means you believe there are larger factors involved such as shared air and water resources, and competing land uses including parks, wetlands and natural preserves that need to override local decision-making.

In Iowa, the local assessor establishes the valuation and classification of the property, the county auditor determines levy rates based on budgets provided from local levying authorities and the tax base applicable to each authority. The county auditor then bills the taxes and they are collected by the county treasurer. The county treasurer then allocates the collected tax dollars to each authority. There are over 2,000 levying authorities in the state.

Local law enforcement officials including police officers and sheriff's deputies are tasked with countless challenging and sometimes dangerous duties, such as responding to active crime scenes and 911 calls for service. But for decades, they also have served as default first responders for issues well beyond those directly related to safety, ranging from noise complaints to concerns involving addiction and poverty. Included are calls related to domestic violence and emergency mental health response.

Because there are so many concepts around reproductive health care, often direct quetions bring the clearest responses. Today's survey question is: \"Should Iowans have the freedom of choice to seek an abortion, along the lines of the Roe v. Wade decision?\"

By reducing the time in which a woman could choose an abortion from 24 weeks to 6 weeks, Iowa was the first state in the nation to restrict abortion based on a “heartbeat.” That law is now before the Iowa Supreme Court, but it has been replicated in several states and now its constitutionality is being challenged. During a Special Session of the Iowa Legislature in early July 2023, legislators once again passed restrictions to an abortion to six week based on a detectible heartbeat. This most recent bill is now being challenged in the courts and an injunction has been issued to prevent the bill’s implementation.

\n
Sigificant changes have come to Iowa’s public education system, producing the greatest decline in ranking among states when it comes to supporting public education, down from #3 in 1998 to #25 in 2022.
\n
\n
After 2010, the average increase in state education support fell from 3.27% to 1.73% per year through 2018.
\n
\n
In real dollars, public education lost more than $400 million through a failure to keep up with inflation. The state would need to cut expenses substantially or raise revenue from other sources to balance the budget.
\n
\n
To reclaim the expected $200 million expected local shortfall for 2024, the legislature has pledged to “backfill” those losses. The last time legislation was presented to the Governor to backfill lost education dollars was in 2015 - but the funds were vetoed.
\n
\n
Today, Iowa ranks 44th among states for college readiness.
\n
A state that once used \"Foundation in Education\" as the theme for our state quarter design is facing a very different forecast today.

Do the changes being made to public education dim your outlook on the state's future? If so, a lot or a little?
