What’s in it

Current law prohibits a political subdivision or agency of Iowa that employs peace officers from imposing a quota on the number of citations issued by the officers. This bill also prohibits imposing a quota for the number of stops of persons committing alleged traffic violations, regardless of whether a citation or memorandum is issued.
