What’s in it
AI summary Iowa would stop banning public money from being kept in banks that don't show they serve their local communities. Instead, the state treasurer would make a list of banks that are allowed to hold these public funds. Banks on this list would have to follow new rules about responding to public comments and sending yearly reports to the treasurer.1
Read the official explanation
This bill repeals Code section 12C.6A, which prohibits public funds from being deposited in a financial institution that does not demonstrate a commitment to serving the needs of the local community in which the institution is chartered to do business, requires the treasurer of state to create a list of financial institutions that are eligible to accept public funds, creates requirements for such financial institutions relating to public comments and annual submissions to the treasurer of state, and establishes a process for challenging an institution’s eligibility to receive public funds.
