Keeping track of the bills that impact Cedar Valley business

We have posted the Iowa Chamber Alliance’s bill tracker for the week of March 11, 2013.  This document shows all of the bills under consideration in the current legislative session that are important to business and are being followed by the Alliance.  The Iowa Chamber Alliance is strong partner with the GCVAC in the Legislature; we work very closely with their lobbyists throughout the session.  You will find the bill title, bill number, an abbreviated bill history and the ICA position on the bills. (Reference: FR= for; UK=undecided/monitoring. )
