A bill for an act relating to activities in the administration of alcoholic beverage control by the department of revenue, and including effective date provisions.
HF 2200 restricts conflicts of interest for Iowa's alcoholic beverage commission members, the Department of Revenue director, and department employees. It limits commission members to no more than two with alcohol business interests (except as institutional investors), prohibits using office to influence politics, and bans the director or employees from owning alcohol-related businesses they regulate. The bill also prevents employees from licensing businesses they have ownership ties to or enforcing rules against such businesses, with violations leading to disciplinary action up to termination. It does not prevent personal alcohol possession. The law takes effect immediately upon enactment.
