A bill for an act relating to the powers and duties of the Iowa sheep and wool promotion board, by changing its name to the Iowa sheep promotion board, eliminating the assessment on wool, changing the assessment rate on sheep, and providing for the collection and expenditure of moneys imposed by the assessment.

The bill updates how these assessments are collected and spent, focusing funds on promoting sheep and sheep products like mutton and wool. It directly affects sheep producers in Iowa who pay these assessments. The changes streamline the board's structure and funding mechanisms while maintaining its core purpose of supporting sheep industry promotion.
