DES MOINES, IOWA (March 29, 2023) — Governor Kim Reynolds has signed the following bills into law:

HF 75: A bill for an act relating to certain health facilities including ambulatory surgical centers and rural emergency hospitals, including licensing requirements and fees, providing penalties and making penalties applicable, providing emergency rulemaking authority, and including applicability and effective-date provisions.

“This is part of our unwavering commitment to ensuring all Iowans, no matter where they live, receive the quality medical care they need and deserve,” said Gov Reynolds. “This bill is an impactful step in that direction, and it’s a pleasure to sign it into law.”

SF 262: A bill for an act relating to consumer data protection, providing civil penalties, and including effective-date provisions.

“In our digital age, it’s never been more important to state, clearly and unmistakably, that consumers deserve a reasonable level of transparency and control over their personal data,” said Gov Reynolds. “That’s exactly what this bill does, making Iowa just the sixth state to provide this kind of comprehensive protection.”
