Primary HF 90

In committee · Iowa House · Lead sponsor

A bill for an act relating to continuing education requirements for licensed professions.

Maddy summaryHF 90 modifies continuing education requirements for licensed professionals in Iowa. It requires that all continuing education credits must directly relate to the licensed profession, prohibiting boards from imposing unrelated requirements. The bill also exempts licensed practitioners with at least ten years of experience and a master’s or doctoral degree from renewal requirements (unless they hold an evaluator endorsement needing ten-year renewal). Additionally, it mandates the Iowa Supreme Court to update attorney continuing education rules to ensure they only include practice-related requirements.

Primary HF 106

In committee · Iowa House · Lead sponsor

A bill for an act relating to the survival of, and the bringing of a cause of action for, wrongful death of an unborn child.

Maddy summaryHF 106 amends Iowa law to allow parents to pursue wrongful death claims if an unborn child dies due to another party's negligence or misconduct. The bill expands the definition of "person" in wrongful death statutes to include an unborn child, defined as a human embryo or fetus from fertilization until birth. This change enables legal claims to survive the death of an unborn child, meaning parents could seek compensation for the loss as they could for a born child. The policy directly affects families who experience the death of an unborn child due to accidents or negligence, providing a legal pathway for compensation under existing wrongful death laws.
