Iowa Legislative Alert IOWA LEGISLATIVE ALERT Issue: The Iowa Academy of Dietetics and Nutrition will hold a Lobbying Workshop and legislator visit on February 22nd, 2017. Points of Contact: Using the list attached to this alert, along with the action alert, contact your elected Representative and Senator. Others that are helpful to contact: • House Speaker: Linda Upmeyer, R-Clear Lake: [email protected] • House Majority Leader: Chris Hagenow, R-Windsor Heights: [email protected] • House Minority Leader: Mark Smith, D-Marshalltown: [email protected] • Senate President: Jack Whitver, R-Ankeny: [email protected] • Senate Majority Leader: Bill Dix, R-Shell Rock: [email protected] • Senate Minority Leader: Robert Hogg, D-Cedar Rapids: [email protected] Analysis Iowa law licenses dietitians for the providing of nutrition assessment, goal setting, counseling, or advice. There is an exemption in the law for licensed physicians and surgeons, nurses, chiropractors, dentists, dental hygienists, pharmacists or physical therapists that make dietetic or nutritional assessments, or give dietetic or nutritional advice in the normal practice of their profession or as otherwise authorized by law. However there is no such exemption for holistic nutrition professionals. The Iowa Academy of Dietetics and Nutrition will be holding a Lobbying Workshop along with meetings with key legislators. Recommendations We should politely disrupt the legislative day and urge policymakers to consider finding ways to open up the practice of nutrition. Specifically, we should call attention to parts of the law that are anticompetitive, and encourage them to investigate whether licensure of dietetics prevents competition, by creating a monopoly for a single profession. In closing we should ask the legislator to expand the exemption language for those not licensed as a dietician to provide nutrition advice, assessment, education and information. SAMPLE LETTER TO SEND TO YOUR REPRESENTATIVE (S) Dear: ___________________ I am writing to express concern regarding the law for whom may provide nutrition education, advice, counseling, assessment, and information. Presently, the law states that only a dietician may provide such services, and requires a license specifically designed for dieticians. This has created a monopoly so that only dieticians may provide such services, unfairly limiting competition from other highly trained, and equally competent providers. For example, a weight loss coach, PhD level nutritionist, or any number of holistic nutrition providers are barred from providing nutrition education advice, counseling, assessment, goal setting, or information. There is no harm to the public for these providers to give such information, but Iowans are captive to a single industry, a single profession, and a single choice in nutrition. Current exemption language, Section 152A.3, does not sufficiently provide protection for those who are providing nutrition assessment, guidance, education, and information, and should be improved. As your constituent I urge you to consider how the nutrition industry could be expanded to allow for others to provide nutrition information and services through the exemption language in the law. This would not only reduce costs for everyone, by reducing or eliminating an industry monopoly, but it would also allow for greater job creation, and choice.

  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.

The State Roster also lists advisory councils whose members are appointed by the Governor or General Assembly, and may include other boards and commissions of interest to the public.
