Laura Belin and Spencer Dirks cover the biggest Iowa political news stories, starting with fallout from Governor Kim Reynolds' announcement that she won't seek a third term: potential Republican and Democratic candidates, impact on the next elections for governor and down-ballot offices, and reasons for Reynolds' relatively low approval rating. Meanwhile, Democrats plan to target Iowa's second Congressional district and have nominated a candidate for an upcoming special Iowa House election. Laura and Spencer also discussed the Iowa legislature's work on school funding, other education policies, election laws, cancer, property taxes, the minimum age to carry handguns, and a revealing Iowa Senate debate on human remains.
