State budget and taxes

July 1, 2026

In November, Iowa voters face an existential ballot question about our state’s financial future. They have an opportunity to reject a proposed constitutional amendment that would derail our state’s ability to fund the services that help make Iowa a good place to live, work and raise a family. By requiring personal or corporate income tax increases to be approved by a two-thirds majority in each house, the proposed amendment would virtually lock in recent extreme tax cuts skewed to the wealthy and make it much harder to fix our state’s escalating revenue crisis.
