Iowa Legislative Report88th General Assembly, 2019 SessionIowa State Police AssociationWeek 4: February 4th – February 8th, 2019Mike Heller and Paula Feltner, LobbyistsAll the action was in committee in both chambers this week and predominantly in the Senate. Senate Judiciary Voted OutSF 113 OWI HABITUAL OFFENDERS, FM: Nunn which allows offenders convicted of subsequent OWI offenses after a conviction for a 3rd offense to be sentenced as habitual offenders. The Judiciary Committee approved the bill on a 14-0 vote. The House has a companion bill (HSB 29). The bill addresses an Iowa Supreme Court ruling from October (Noll v Iowa District Court for Muscatine County 17–0783 Filed October 19, 2018) where the Supreme Court ruled that OWI sentencing provisions establish the minimum and maximum penalties and habitual offender provisions cannot be used to enhance those penalties. The bill restores the use of habitual offender provisions in OWI sentencing. The LSA wrote, “It is important to note that prior to the Noll case, the habitual offender statute was previously applied to OWI third sentences. The implementation of SF 113 would allow this practice to resume. As a result, the increase in prison populations may be minimal due to this prior existing practice.” Senate Transportation Committee Voted Out SF 42 SINGLE PLATE DISPLAY which changes the date for older vehicles to qualify to display only one plate to 1978. PASSED 11-1; FM: Brown Senate Ways & Means Voted Out (2) SSB 1059 CRIMINAL SURCHARGES: Changes the criminal penalty surcharges to criminal services surcharges. Allocates 15% of the surcharge to the county treasurer; and splits the remaining 85% three ways (59% to the victim fund, 38% to the criminalistics lab fund and 3% to DARE). Combines the sexual abuse/trafficking and domestic abuse surcharges into a single $90 surcharge. Makes corresponding changes to other surcharges. Establishes a 35% surcharge for the felony theft of crops, livestock or honeybees. Includes other specifics on agricultural theft crimes covered. Appropriates the funds to the Judicial Branch for its operations. Court modernization: Increases the allocation to the Court Technology & Modernization Fund to $9 million. Civil Fees: Increases civil fees by $20. Scheduled violations: Reschedules various car insurance & title registration offenses and other traffic offenses as scheduled violations. Raises fines for scheduled violations approximately 28%. Fines: Decreases simple misdemeanors ($90 to $885); Increases serious misdemeanor ($430 to $2,560); aggravated misdemeanor ($855 to $8,540); Class D ($1,025 to $10,245); Class C ($1,370 to $13,660). Other: Deems the Criminalistic Lab fund shall receive appropriations and surcharges. Establishes the DARE fund. PASSED 16-0; FM: Dawson There is also a lot of activity bubbling in different quarters on unemployment comp legislation. Iowa Workforce Development officials pre-filed a bill that would change benefits for the program it oversees (Unemployment Insurance Tax and Benefits (1241XD) - Workforce Development, Department of) which at this point has not been filed but is worth a look. The proposed changes come at a time when more Iowans than ever are working: Iowa’s lowest-in-the-nation unemployment rate of 2.4 percent in December was a record low for the state. More than 1.65 million Iowans were working that month, a record high since records were first collected in 1976, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. In addition, Iowa’s unemployment trust fund is among the nation’s highest rated. Two Iowa senators have floated bills that would alter eligibility requirements and other changes include adding a one-week waiting period to receive benefits and targeting the long-term unemployed. Senator Carlin, Sioux City, introduced SF 99 dealing with work search requirements for unemployment insurance benefits. The bill authorizes an employer to report to the department of workforce development a job applicant who applies for a job for which the applicant does not meet the minimum lawful requirements or for which the applicant is manifestly unqualified. If such an individual claimed unemployment benefits for the week during which the application was made, the bill requires the department to provide the individual written notice that such a report has been made. If three such reports regarding an individual are made during the individual’s unemployment benefit year for applications during weeks in which the individual claimed unemployment benefits, the bill requires the department to initiate an investigation as to whether the individual was earnestly and actively seeking work during the weeks in question. The bill provides that there shall be a rebuttable presumption that the person was not earnestly and actively seeking work during the weeks in question. It also provides that the individual shall be subject to any applicable penalties provided under Code chapter 96, which governs unemployment insurance. Penalties may include but are not limited to disqualification from eligibility for unemployment benefits. The bill applies to any new claim of unemployment benefits with an effective date on or after July 7, 2019.Senator Chapman, Adel, introduced a bill SSB 1088, (companion HSB27) seeking to redefine misconduct, the legal standard used to determine if out-of- work employees are disqualified from drawing unemployment insurance benefits. Under the bill,workers could lose unemployment benefits for:intoxication theftDisobedience of “reasonable instructions of the employer”Lack of truthfulness or candor“Excessive” unexcused tardiness or absenteeismConduct that creates “dissension or animus” against the employer or a co-worker if that behavior is not protected under federal or state lawConduct that is “defamatory” toward the employeror an employee if that behavior is not protected under federal or state law, andConduct that is “not in the best interest” of the employer Finally, just FYI, a bill, also by Senator Chapman of Adel, moving through the Iowa Senate (SSB 1035) would expand the window of time for Iowans to use consumer grade fireworks by lifting any existing local bans on July 4. Multiple cities — including Des Moines, Cedar Rapids and Iowa City — have bans in place. The legislation would void that for one day, no matter what local communities have decided.The current law limits the sale and use of fireworks around the July Fourth and New Year’s Day holidays, and local governments have the power to further restrict around those parameters. The proposed bill would still let local governments ban the use of fireworks during those periods. However, they would be prohibited from placing restrictions on July 4 at any point in the day. No restrictions on the sale and use of fireworks could be applied on July 4 and the weekends around July Fourth and New Year’s Day holidays are changed to include Friday instead of Sunday.The bill would prohibit cities or counties from adopting or enforcing certain zoning rules to regulate, restrict, or prohibit the location of permanent buildings or temporary structures used in the sale of consumer fireworks. A key component of the bill would also expand where fireworks retailers can set up shop. Cities and counties would have little say on what to do about it. Further, a city or county would not have the authority to require inspections related to the sale of consumer fireworks; the state fire marshal can and may authorize a local government to do so.The bill stipulates that if the state fire marshal does not approve or deny an application for a license to sell fireworks within a certain time frame, the application would be automatically approved. The fire marshal could later revoke the application.In the House this week, House Judiciary Committee: Voted Out HF 5 SEARCH WARRANT INFORMATION which seals the information used to secure a search warrant in cases that result in an acquittal or the dismissal of all criminal charges. Allows the records to be circulated only to peace officers, magistrates and court employees, and only in the course of their official duty. AMENDED & PASSED 21-0; FM: JonesHSB 11 SEXUALLY VIOLENT OFFENDERSIncludes additional offenses as sexually violent offenses. Makes changes to the petition requirements when alleging that an offender is a sexually violent offender. Allows a court to rely on the fact finding of an administrative parole judge or other agency fact finder. Specifies that certain notice of discharge requirements apply only to the AG and the multi-disciplinary team. PASSED 20-1; FM: KleinThe House Public Safety Committee introduced a study bill again re: Jail Medical Costs HSB 137 with a subcommittee of Paustian (C), Kurtz, Thorup. There is a companion bill in the Senate SSB 1074. The bill stipulates that prisoners have the primary responsibility to pay for the costs of medical aid furnished in prison and establishes a priority order for the health care provider to seek reimbursement. It also requires government agencies to pay within 90 days at the Medicare rate if the provider shows that other reimbursements are not available. The bill does not require payment for services after the prisoner is released and does not prohibit seeking reimbursement from the prisoner. We have heard several times your concern about the difficulty of dealing with persons with mental health. It is often hard to find them placement. This week, the House Human Resources Committee heard from the Iowa Department of Human Services and Iowa Department of Public Health on the progress made in caring for individuals with mental health needs since the passage of Iowa’s comprehensive mental health bill (House File 2456 last year) that affects our members. That bill required the addition of several core services to fill the gaps in Iowa’s mental health care system. They presented charts and data to reflect the progress that has been made in expanding these services statewide over the last yearAssertive Community Treatment (ACT) teams: interdisciplinary team-based, individualized, flexible treatment and supports to individuals with a serious and persistent mental illness provided in the community, 24/7. HF 2456 requires 22 ACT Teams in the state. Currently 10, Mental Health and Disability Services (MHDS) Regions have ACT teams in place, and 3 Regions are developing.Mobile Response: On-site, face-to-face mental health crisis services for an individual experiencing a mental health crisis. 23 Hour Crisis Observation: Provides up to 23 hours in a secure, medically staffed, psychiatrically supervised treatment environment.Subacute Services: comprehensive set of wraparound services for individuals that have or are at risk of having an acute or crisis mental health symptoms but do not need acute inpatient care- did not give statistics or elaborate.Intensive Residential Service Homes: Community-based homes that provide intensive staff support 24/7 for individuals with serious mental illness that have severe complex needs on a no eject, no reject basis. The legislation requires 120 beds statewide. 10 MHDS Regions are actively planning setting these up. These homes did not exist prior to the passage of HF 2456. Access Centers: Coordinated services providing assessment and screening for multi-occurring conditions, care coordination, crisis stabilization, residential services, subacute mental health services, and substance abuse treatment for those who do not need inpatient psychiatric hospital treatment but need significant amounts of supports and services not available in home and community-based settings on a no eject, no reject basis. 3 MHDS Regions are developing access centers, 8 Regions are actively planning, and 3 Regions continue to discuss. These centers did not exist prior to the passage of HF 2456.It clearly will take time for all the services to get in place, but once they are all up and running, they are supposed to relieve the pressure placed on inpatient psychiatric beds, serve mental health patients in the proper setting, and decrease the time law enforcement will spend transporting patients and waiting in Emergency Rooms.The committee also heard from Your Life Iowa, the single 24-hour crisis hotline serving adults and children in the state. Prior to HF 2456, all 14 MHDS Regions duplicated efforts and each had a regional hotline. Now, with Your Life Iowa, Iowans can receive treatment through call, online chat or text for suicide, substance abuse, and gambling treatment. Foundation 2 in Cedar Rapids operates the hotline.Please give us any feedback you have or encounter with this new law and we will take concerns to legislators.That is a wrap for this week. The House and Senate had short days on Thursday, with many members leaving early due to bad weather. They will reconvene again Monday afternoon.
