AGP Executive Report

Last update: 29 minutes ago

Iowa Politics & Courts: Cerro Gordo County is suing Iowa to block a $500 million, 500-megawatt River City solar project, arguing the state should require local zoning approval before permits move forward. Iowa Agriculture & Money: GOP Lt. Gov. nominee Derek Wulf says he’s refinancing after a foreclosure filing and multiple debt lawsuits, framing it as proof family farms are under pressure. Statehouse & Voting Rules: Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate is again in the spotlight after a Democrat running for his seat demanded answers about voter data shared with the Trump administration. Public Safety & Infrastructure: Iowa environmental groups sued the Iowa DNR over permits tied to toxic coal ash discharge at the Ottumwa landfill, asking the court to stop leachate releases. Travel & Local Life: Des Moines-area travelers should note TSA Gold+ is set to expand private screening at Des Moines International (along with Charleston and Tampa), with Gold+ launching next year. Community Spotlight: Paul Pate recognized young Iowans with the John Lewis Youth Leadership Award, including a Luther College student and a Mason City Alternative High School Key Club. Sports & Culture: Caitlin Clark was named an NBA 2K27 cover athlete, and RAGBRAI brought a Black Hawk helicopter landing to the Iowa Veterans Home in Marshalltown.
