At the Capitol

ITR’s President, Chris Hagenow, is Iowa’s former House Majority Leader, and our lobbyists are veterans of the Iowa Capitol. One is a former state representative, and the other is a former chief of staff to the Senate president. From legislative testimony to private discussions with lawmakers, ITR’s voice is the one that conservative circles listen to most when it comes to fiscal matters.

ITR’s priorities for the legislative session:

  • The Property Tax Problem and Solution
  • Iowa’s Fiscal Crossroads: Maintaining Discipline Amid Uncertainty
  • General Fund Continuation: Budget Reform
  • Protecting Taxpayers Through Constitutional Amendments
  • Iowa Must Pass the Fiscal Independence Act to Fight Federal Funding Fallout
  • Protecting the Integrity of the Taxpayer Relief Fund
