SF 356 Iowa Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to the election of county central committee officers.

SF 356 amends Iowa law to limit county central committee officers to a maximum two-year term, regardless of whether a successor has been elected. This directly affects county-level political party officers (such as chairs and treasurers) in all Iowa counties. The key change replaces current law - which allowed officers to serve until a successor was elected (potentially exceeding two years) - with a fixed term limit. The bill ensures officers cannot serve longer than two years, even if no replacement is chosen promptly.
