Is a fund allocating billions to some rural hospital losses easing concerns? What does this mean for the state’s rural providers? We’ll unpack the changes in Medicaid and what it means for Iowa’s hospitals and providers and how those changes might impact you.
Iowa Ideas is a free virtual conference put on by The Gazette annually. Together, Iowans explore and share perspectives on the issues impacting the state. Watch replays from the 2025 conference at www.iowaideas.com.

On this week's episode we take one last look in the rearview mirror at the 2024 legislative session. We'll talk about traffic cameras in the Quad Cities. Congresswoman Ashley Hinson discusses aid to Ukraine and her recent visit with the Ukrainian president.
Iowa legislation, including hands-free driving bill and distracted driving concerns.* Lawmakers struggle to reach agreement on new bills, including hands-free driving bill. * Law enforcement and safety advocates have been pushing for a hands-free driving bill to crack down on distracted driving. * Despite overwhelming Senate support, the bill was held up in the House due to libertarian concerns about individual rights. * Opposition to hands-free driving bill largely unheard of, with insurance industry and representatives speaking in support.
Iowa politics, judicial appointments, and legislative relationships.* Governor Reynolds seeks more control over judicial appointments. * Erin Murphy expects more of the same in the relationship between the House and Senate Republicans, with big bills still getting passed despite disagreements. * Some House Republicans praised House Democrats for their working relationship, while criticizing Senate Republicans for their behavior.
Traffic cameras in LeClaire, Iowa, and their revenue impact.* The challenges of passing bills in the Iowa legislature, including the House and Senate's differing opinions and the public's lack of awareness. * Sarah Watson reports on the Quad Cities' data collection and reporting efforts for automated traffic enforcement cameras, with a 70% reduction in crashes observed in some intersections. * Focus on LeClaire, Iowa's traffic camera revenue, which is significant for a town of about 4,000 people. The city issued 62,000 violations and collected 50,000 of those, with a baseline of $50 per violation.
US aid to Ukraine and meeting with Ukrainian officials.* Congresswoman Ashley Hinson visited Ukraine and met with US military officials, anti-corruption officials, and Agriculture officials to discuss America's interest in arming Ukraine. * Former President Trump shifts tone on Ukraine aid, agrees with sentiments of US lawmaker.
Truck driver's death, investigation, and updates.* Sarah Schultz and Jake Rowley hold press conference to provide updates on David Schultz's disappearance. * Body of David Schultz, a truck driver, found laying face up in a field one and a half miles from where his semi was abandoned. * Authorities have not yet found any suspected foul play in the death of the unnamed person. * Authorities are tight-lipped about the case, and it may be some time before they release medical examination results.

On the podcast this week, in the Iowa Legislature the follow-up to the first funnel was just as much a whirlwind, Gov. Kim Reynolds made her pick for the next director of the state education department, and this weekend is the starting gun to the 2024 Republican Iowa caucuses.
Hello everyone, I’m Erin Murphy, the Des Moines Bureau Chief for The Gazette in Cedar Rapids. With me this week are: Gazette Deputy Bureau Chief Tom Barton, Lee Des Moines Bureau Chief Caleb McCullough, Sarah Watson of the Quad City Times and Jared McNett of the Sioux City Journal.
Tone Da Boss will play us out this week. If you know an Iowa band or musician who should be featured on the podcast, please send us a sound file.
The University of Iowa and Board of Regents will settle a lawsuit that claims the Hawkeye football program and its coaches further a culture of racism and harassment. In 2020, seven former players accused the program and its coaches of discriminating against players, using derogatory terms and creating a racially-hostile environment. Now, the UI and Board of Regents have agreed to pay $4.175 million to settle the lawsuit. According to the proposed settlement, the state would pay $2 million of that from its general fund. State Auditor Rob Sand opposes spending that state money “unless (UI Athletics Director) Gary Barta is no longer employed at the university and forfeits any severance or similar pay.” Sand said this is the fourth discrimination case against the UI Athletics Department in under nine years which resulted in nearly $11 million in settlements under Barta. The Gazette’s Vanessa Miller broke down the settlement payments and recent developments. Find Miller’s article at thegazette.com.
In other news, Big Grove Brewery has awarded $32,000 in grants to four Iowa nonprofits. Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Iowa, Central Iowa Shelter Services, the Free Lunch Program of Iowa City and Iowa City Coralville Boxing Club will be awarded $8,000 each. Big Grove Brewery’s Director of Communications Janelle Buxton said, “We know $8,000 isn’t much to some, but to others, it could make or break their operating budgets for the year. Whatever we do, we want to make a significant contribution to their project or program.” Because Big Grove’s next location is under construction in Cedar Rapids, Linn County nonprofits will be eligible for grants in the next cycle. For more information, read Elijah Decious’s story at thegazette.com.
Finally, a look at today’s weather. Expect partly sunny skies with a high near 47 and a low of 32. Winter weather may return to Cedar Rapids as there’s a 20% chance of snow after midnight. Winds will reach as high as 30mph.
Thank you for listening to The Gazette’s Daily News Podcast. I’m Bailey Cichon.
