| |NOTE FROM MARGE: |

|Action Auto Parts |I just want to say, I was really pumped after I left the last meeting, it just seemed everyone was working together and |

|1005 18th Avenue |trying to work out all of the issues, to make our club a better organization. It takes everyone’s input to make our club |

|Marshalltown, IA 641-752-3395 |be successful. |

|Auto & salvage source |I want to thank all of our NEW memberships, we have received from the Grundy Center area, and looking forward to |

|RJ's Hideaway |connecting you to our trail system, so we can get better connected to the northern tier of trails of the state of Iowa. |

|Registration Fee Increase Update: Bills are in 'Serious Trouble'; Call Legislators this Weekend by Mike Heller, |Sponsors: |

|ISSA Lobbyist |The Weathered Wheel |

|(off the front page of iowasnowmobiler.website as of Feb.28) |1384 Washington Street |

|    The seventh week of the session marked the busiest thus far this year for |Eldora, IA 641-858-2670 |

|the Iowa Legislature. There was a flood of new bills introduced and |Scooter Tire and Service |

|subcommittees met every day virtually non-stop from early in the morning to |805 Iowa Ave W |

|well into the evening hours.   |Marshalltown, IA 641-752-9269 |

|       Next Friday is the final date for bills to be reported out of committee.   |Haverhill Social Club |

|Subcommittees met to try to get bills ready for consideration by standing |210 1st Street |

|committees prior to the funnel deadline.   |Haverhill, IA 641-475-3321 |

|       Next Friday will also mark the 55th day of the legislature’s scheduled 110- day session. It seems doubtful|Hinegardner's Orchard |

|that the legislature will adjourn anywhere near the 110 day mark when legislative per diem reimbursement runs |1348 295th Street |

|out unless there is a dramatic move towards compromise by all parties.  The reapportionment and budget issues |Montour, IA 641-492-6353 |

|loom as major obstacles to adjournment. |Greezy's |

|      Our snowmobile registration bills are in serious trouble in both chambers in Des Moines. The House |401 Center Street |

|Republican leadership has concerns about the bill. We are meeting with House leadership on Monday to discuss the|Whitten, IA 641-486-5531 |

|future of the bill. The Senate is reluctant to take the bill up if the House is not going to consider it.   |The Spot |

|       We are running into a difficult situation where the focus is on the fee |217 1/2 N. 13th Street |

|increase and not on the opportunities the bill can mean to Iowa snowmobilers to stay in Iowa. We will know more |Marshalltown, IA 641-752-6014 |

|next week, but in the interim, please keep up the contacts on the members of the House Natural Resources |RJ's Lounge |

|Committee and the Senate Ways and Means Committee. Members are listed at right.  The members of these committees|10 N Main Street |

|and of leadership need to hear from snowmobilers about these bills or they are not going to get up for a vote. |Conrad, IA 641-366-2687 |
