A bill for an act relating to contracts entered into by state agencies and including applicability provisions.

SSB 3030 prevents Iowa state agencies from including harmful or one-sided terms in contracts for goods and services. It bans specific provisions like those requiring the state to pay excessive fees, allow foreign courts to handle disputes, or waive the right to a jury trial. The bill mandates that all state agency contracts must be governed by Iowa law and require disputes to be resolved in Iowa courts. It also allows limited waivers for necessary contracts if the state would face significant harm without them, but only after proving all alternatives were exhausted.
