The Iowa General Assembly adjourned the 2020 legislative session on Sunday, June 14, after spending 75 days in session in Des Moines.
Rep. Tedd Gassman, R-Scarville, who represents part of Kossuth County, said in a press release, “The 2020 session was unprecedented as it was forced to suspend operations in mid-March as the COVID-19 pandemic was making its way into Iowa. After implementing additional safety precautions, the legislature reconvened on June 3 to complete its work, which included addressing a handful of remaining policy issues and passing a state budget.
