(Des Moines) The Iowa House last week passed a fill appropriating funds for psychiatry residences.
Iowa House District 21 Representative Tom Moore, of Griswold, said House File 2529 appropriates funding for 12 new psychiatry residences at UHC per year, with a focus on the residents receiving their psychiatric training at the state MHIs, resource centers, Eldora state training school and Oakdale Classification Center.
The bill passed by a vote of 96-0.
Moore said the Iowa House also passed House File 2466 which inserts language to correct Iowa Code to apply the signature requirements for candidates for county offices and county supervisors in the same section of codes as other elected officials. It also updates the signature requirements for candidates in supervisor districts with a population of 15,000 or fewer.
The bill passed by a vote of 96-0.
