A bill for an act relating to the payment of per diem to members of the general assembly.

This bill (SF 2209) reduces the number of days Iowa legislators receive per diem pay for session expenses. It shortens the per diem period from 110 to 55 days for the first regular legislative session and from 100 to 50 days for the second session. Most state legislators (excluding leadership roles like Senate President or House Speaker) are affected, with Polk County members receiving 75% of the standard per diem rate. The bill also maintains a $300 monthly allowance for district expenses and travel reimbursement rules.
