The Senate secretary announced on March 27, 2025 that the Iowa House had passed a bundle of bills earlier that day and read the list into the record. The secretary said, “Madam president, the House has on 03/27/2025 passed the following bills,” and then read the bill numbers and the descriptions as recorded in the journal.
The secretary read the following measures as passed by the House on March 27, 2025: Senate File 397; House File 645; House File 767; House File 899; House File 907; House File 932; House File 949; and House File 956. The reading in the transcript includes short, sometimes garbled, descriptions following each bill number; where a clear title was not provided in the record the description is not specified in this report.
No Senate vote or formal action on those measures was recorded during the session. Later in the short session, Senator Whitver moved to adjourn; the presiding officer ruled the motion prevailed and announced, “The motion prevails, and the senate is adjourned until Tuesday, April 1 at 9AM.”
The remainder of the day's floor time was used for introductions and brief announcements by senators and a prayer reading; those remarks were ceremonial and did not change the status of the bills the secretary read. The journal entry introduced into the record the House’s passage of the listed bills; the Senate’s next scheduled floor session is April 1, 2025 at 9 a.m.
