Iowa Legislative Session Underway

Keokuk, IA – One Lee County lawmaker says the 2007 legislative session could be very productive. Lawmakers traveled to Des Moines, today, to begin the 1st spring session of the 82nd Iowa General Assembly. For the first time in decades, Democrats control the House, the Senate, and the Governor's Office. Representative Phil Wise says that fact should prove to be a benefit for Lee County. The Keokuk Democrat says the county has been making progress in turning its economy around and he believes Lee County will take the next step forward during this session. The Spring legislative session wraps up April 27.
