New online resource offers comprehensive Iowa list of clinical cancer trials

News

April 19th, 2024 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – Hospitals across the state are partnering with the Iowa Cancer Consortium to create a new online clearinghouse for places in Iowa that offer clinical cancer trials. Kelly Sittig, the consortium’s executive director, says clinical trials are research studies that identify the best ways to prevent, detect, and treat cancer.

While there are many trials underway for a variety of cancer types and stages, Sittig says it can be challenging for a patient or their care team to find the right one. People do better when they get treatment close to home, she says, so it’s important to know clinical trials can be available across the state.

Hinson Slams Senate Democrats For Not Impeaching Homeland Security Secretary

News

April 19th, 2024 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – Iowa Congresswoman Ashley Hinson, a Republican from Marion, says the Senate should have followed through with an impeachment trial for U-S Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Hinson says Senate Democrats are “cowards” for not taking up the impeachment trial.

Hinson says the House Articles of Impeachment came after the Secretary failed to do his job and were intended to hold Secretary Mayorkas accountable.

She says the Senate Democrats signaled to the American people that they do not care about border security and accountability for this administration. Hinson made her comments during her weekly conference call with reporters.

Uncertainty about legal settlement for Boy Scouts who were child abuse victims

News

April 19th, 2024 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – A man from Fort Dodge is hoping today’s the day the Iowa House passes a bill to ensure he gets the entire payment he’s due from a legal settlement. Joe Gargano is one of dozens of Iowa men who’ve alleged they were abused as children by Boy Scout leaders. There’s a national fund to pay thousands of victims, but Iowa has a time limit on suing perpetrators of childhood sexual abuse. An attorney familiar with the payment process says if the Iowa House doesn’t pass a bill today (Friday) to waive that deadline, Gargano and up to 350 other Iowans will get a fraction of what they’re owed.

” I know what it did to me. It devastated my life into a world of self medication for years and years,” Gargano says. “It’s over 20 years now and by the grace of God…that’s why I’m here. That’s why I’m fighting right now.” The Iowa Senate passed a bill to ensure Gargano and other former Boy Scouts in Iowa owed settlements get the entire payment. The bill had stalled in the House, but it is scheduled for review in a House committee at 8:30 this (Friday) morning. The bill has to pass the committee before it can be brought up for a vote in the full House.

“There’s a lot of people out there this is going to affect,” Gargano said, “and it’s the right thing to do.” The senator who sponsored the bill says it’s narrowly written and only applied to former Scouts due these payments. Iowa law says victims of child sex abuse must file lawsuits seeking civil damages by the age of 19 — or within four years realizing they were victims of sex abuse as a child.

2024 Iowa legislature could soon adjourn for the year

News

April 19th, 2024 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – The Iowa legislature may conclude its 2024 session late today (Friday) or on Saturday. A plan to cut Iowa income taxes by a billion dollars next year is on the debate agenda, along with bills that outline a state spending plan for the budget year that begins July 1st. Republican Representative Gary Mohr is chairman of the House Appropriations Committee. “Inch by inch,” Mohr says. “We’re very close.”

Total state spending in the next fiscal year will top eight-point-nine billion dollars. “We feel very good about the agreed upon numbers, what we’re going to do with those dollars to provide government, but also give some of it back to the people of Iowa,” Mohr says.

Republican lawmakers intend to spend 92 percent of expected tax revenue. The remaining eight percent is being funneled to the plan to have a flat state income tax of three-point-eight percent next year. Senator Dan Dawson, a Republican from Council Bluffs, is chairman of the Ways and Means Committee in the Iowa Senate. “Our first mission here is always give money back to the taxpayers,” Dawson says.

Representative Dave Jacoby, a Democrat from Coralville, says a flat tax benefits the richest Iowans and a better approach would be targeted cuts for low and middle income Iowans. “We’re not giving them more money back as we should,” Jacoby said.

Lawmakers debated late last (Thurday) night, approving several parts of the state budget. Community colleges will get a three percent increase in general state funding, The state’s three universities in Ames, Cedar Falls and Iowa City are each getting a two-and-a-half percent increase in state funding. Senator Jeff Taylor, a Republican from Sioux Center, says the Iowa Tuition Grant program — for students at private colleges and universities — is getting a two-and-a-half percent funding increase as well.

“It’s not a perfect bill, but it’s a good bill,” Taylor says. “With these budget bills, especially on something as complex and important as education, you would expect that the final result is going to be something of a compromise between the House and the Senate. That’s the nature of how things work around here.”

Senator Cindy Winckler, a Democrat from Davenport, says state funding for Iowa’s community colleges and three public universities hasn’t kept up with inflation for more than a decade.  “It shifts the financial burden to our students and our families,” Winckler says.

The board that governs the University of Iowa, Iowa State University and the University of Northern Iowa has not yet set tuition rates for the fall semester.
