DES MOINES — Iowans will start paying less state income tax over the coming years, and eventually the reductions will mean $1.9 billion less annually in the state’s spending plan for education, health, justice and other government services.

Over the coming years, more and more Iowa gas stations will have the higher E15 blend of ethanol available at their pumps. And transgender girls in Iowa can no longer play in school sanctioned girls athletics.

It’s all because of legislation that was approved this year by the Iowa Legislature, and signed into law by Gov. Kim Reynolds.

But some pretty significant proposals did not make the cut.

There will be no scholarship program that would shift taxpayer funding to support families who want to send their student to a private school. There will be no added transparency requirements for public schools about classroom materials and library books. And traffic enforcement cameras, like those in Cedar Rapids, were not banned.

Here are three lists of bills: those that were approved by both chambers of the Iowa Legislature and have been signed into law by Reynolds; those that were approved by the Legislature but await Reynolds’ decision; and those that failed to pass the Legislature.
