SSB 3199 Iowa Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to state and local government and finances, including by making, modifying, limiting, or reducing appropriations, distributions, or transfers, authorizing expenditure of unappropriated moneys in special funds, making corrections, and providing for properly related matters including the national electrical code, local civil rights laws, political party state central committees, noxious weeds, nonresident deer hunting licenses, proprietary treatment systems, poultry associations, tax credits, alternative nicotine and vapor products, public assistance programs, judicial branch and county attorney salaries, civil litigation abuse, human trafficking, federal grants and loans notifications, quarterly payments to area education agencies, civic proficiency in higher education, charter schools under the Iowa public employees’ retirement system, school district incentives, extracurricular interscholastic eligibility, and levy increases, and including effective date, applicability, and retroactive applicability provisions.

SSB 3199 is a comprehensive budget bill that sets spending limits and authorizes funds for various state programs and agencies for the 2026-2027 fiscal year. The legislation directly affects state departments, school districts, and specific programs by capping payments for nonpublic school transportation, eliminating state aid for instructional support, and allocating millions of dollars for IT modernization in health and human services. It also allows salary adjustments for certain employees using unspent money from special funds, creates a new grant to support healthy eating options for SNAP recipients, and changes rules so some unspent funds can be used in future years rather than returning to the general fund. Additionally, the bill adjusts funding for workforce development, sports wagering, and apprenticeship programs while clarifying how certain federal grants are managed.
