REMARKS BY SPEAKER UPMEYER
To my colleagues, our friends and families, and to all Iowans here or watching at home, welcome back to the Iowa House of Representatives.
To my husband Doug, our children, and grandchildren; you sacrifice the most. Thank you for understanding when I am away, thank you for supporting me when things get bumpy.
This is such a special personal moment for our family. I think it will really take some time for me to fully appreciate following my father’s footsteps into this chair. I am so thankful for the way my mother, who is here today, partnered with my father to instill us kids with good values.
Many have remarked to me over the years how good my father was at working with anyone in this building. That has always stuck with me and I know that while times have changed, the value of working together has not.
1st Day MONDAY, JANUARY 11, 2016 7
It is humbling to be the first woman to preside over this prestigious chamber. It is exciting that we are making history, in a room that has experienced so much of it.
I want to thank my caucus for selecting me to lead this chamber and thank you all for your support today.
I hope my election as Speaker shows all young women, and Iowans who come from diverse backgrounds, that opportunities abound. For a long time, we have told children they can be whatever they want when they grow up. Today, better than ever, we are showing them that is a reality.
Like many of you, I left here last session with certain expectations for how this session would start. Expectations however, rarely predict future realities.
Settling for what is expected would be a very disappointing habit for this body to get into. If we settled for expectations, how many of our greatest achievements would have been left on the shelf, unrealized?
The press and pundits have low expectations for this session. These are not the expectations we should concern ourselves with. Instead, we should focus on the expectations of the Iowans we have been elected to represent.
Our constituents expect us to listen to them. To bring their ideas and concerns into this building, share them, and use them to do what is right for the future of this state.
Those who arrived here today intending to use disagreements between us to drive us further apart are doing so to the detriment of the people we serve. The perpetual campaign and gridlock are the failures of Washington, D.C. It is a miscalculation to think using that disastrous approach will be an advantage inside this building.
We have chosen a different approach in the past and I am optimistic we will do so again.
In each of the last five years, we have found agreement on budgets that fund priorities without spending more than we take in. Iowans have come to expect this kind of common sense budgeting. This has served us well and with available revenue anticipated to grow by $153 million this year, we should welcome the opportunity to once again pass a sustainable budget.
In each of the last five years, we have found a way to increase funding for schools. We will increase funding for schools again this year. However, we should recognize that the needs of our schools and students extend beyond the amount we increase their funding each year.
If we are to improve the opportunities provided by an education in Iowa’s public schools, the expectation should be that we can broaden the conversation to ways to provide for flexibility and innovation while retaining a focus on the students.
In three weeks, Iowa will host the first-in-the-nation presidential caucuses. You might have noticed that those hoping to be our next president are currently spending even more of their time in Iowa. A common message Iowans are sharing with candidates is 8 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE 1st Day
that they are unhappy with the status quo and they do not believe there is the will to change it. I share their concern.
With confidence at an all-time low, we need leadership. I am not only talking about our next president. I am talking about us. Iowans should expect the state to showcase how government, for the people, by the people, is supposed to work.
The founders of this nation feared an overreaching and stifling federal government. They trusted the states to be the laboratories of innovation who could prevent the realities we now face.
It is not our job to protect the status quo. In a fast-moving and ever-changing world, the status quo means being left behind. We should strive for better. We should welcome disruptive ideas. We should pursue policies that increase opportunities, use technology to remove barriers, help us make this the best state in the nation to grow a business and raise a family.
My expectations are high because I believe in the good will and the talent of the people in this room and of Iowans. I look forward to what lies ahead for the Iowa House of Representatives and the great State of Iowa.
May God bless our work.

REMARKS BY MINORITY LEADER SMITH
Smith of Marshall addressed the House as follows:
Welcome back to all of you. And let me first say congratulations to you Madam Speaker and Leader Hagenow. I look forward to working with both of you this session.
1st Day MONDAY, JANUARY 11, 2016 11
Last year, a member of this body used a quote from George Santayana that was attributed to someone else. Santayana said, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” The preamble to what Santayana said is also very important: “Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness.”
We have made great changes by being the people of Iowa. We were the first to rule against the enslavement of our brothers and sisters of African descent. We barely broke Iowa’s sod for farming when we built country schools. We were the first state to allow people of color to own land and therefore it was legal for the first people of our land to purchase 80 acres in Tama County and to bring their people together.
One of the few amendments to our constitution added two words wherever the term “men” appeared by adding “and women.” The strength of our constitution on equal protection allowed us to recognize the love between two people that results in marriage is not limited to just people of the opposite sex.
Will we be consistent with the progressive history of our great state? To do so, we must bridge the gap between liberty and rights through laws that honor both. We must make this a state worthy of its children.
House Democrats believe every family and every child in Iowa deserves a fair shot to achieve the American Dream.
Today, too many families are working hard with one, two, or even three jobs, but still not getting ahead. Their wages simply aren’t keeping up with rising costs for food, medicine, and child care.
Our challenge this year is to ease the burden on working families in Iowa.
We can start by renewing of our commitment to public education. It means we make the top priority of Iowans – our public schools – the top priority of this body again.
No more delays.
No more vetoes.
No more schemes.
No more games.
Public schools must come first again.
We can also help working families by making college and job training more affordable. Iowans should be able to get the skills necessary to land a good job without being in massive debt after graduation. With a workforce shortage on the horizon, the reality is we need every Iowan to get some skills or training after high school to make sure we have enough workers to fill the jobs in our growing economy. We should also work together to provide continuing education and job retraining when needed.
House Democrats will work this year to expand early childhood education, protect kids from bullying, raise the minimum wage, and make sure women earn equal pay for equal work. We pledge our cooperation with the majority party to encourage more 12 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE 1st Day
investment in small businesses and entrepreneurs, create good jobs, and expand renewable energy. All of those ideas will give working families a boost and help us re- build the middle class.
Finally, this body cannot ignore the Governor’s Medicaid mess.
Since the Governor announced his privatization effort last year, there has been confusion, misinformation, scandals, and too many lawsuits. The rush to privatize Medicaid has caused outright fear among the most vulnerable Iowans. These are people who count on us to have their best interests at heart.
As lawmakers, we have an obligation to oversee this transition and make sure no Iowan falls through the cracks. I know each of you has received letters, emails, and phone calls with questions about Medicaid. I also know the Governor has not been able to provide many answers to those questions.
I ask that we work together in a bi-partisan manner, like we’ve done on other health care issues, to resolve this mess that is filling our providers with uncertainty and putting too many vulnerable Iowans at risk
So, the 2016 session begins, Madam Speaker. We commit to move bi-partisan legislation as quickly as possible. We also commit to our responsibility as the minority party: to fight strongly and intelligently for the things we feel are correct and beneficial for the good, hard-working people of Iowa, to remember the past, to retain and expand the gains we have made for Iowans and above all to honor liberty and the rights of people.
Thank you, Madam Speaker.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE TO NOTIFY THE SENATE
Hanusa of Pottawattamie, Chair of the committee to notify the Senate that the House was duly organized and ready to receive any communication that the Senate might desire to transmit, reported that the committee had performed its duty.
The report was accepted and the committee discharged.
COMMITTEE FROM THE SENATE
Senator Peterson of Polk appeared and notified the House that the Senate was duly organized and ready to receive any communication that the House might desire to transmit.
1st Day MONDAY, JANUARY 11, 2016 13
REMARKS BY MAJORITY LEADER HAGENOW
Hagenow of Polk addressed the House as follows:
Thank you Madam Speaker.
Madam Speaker, Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. It is my honor to welcome you, your families and your guests back to the Iowa House of Representatives for the 2016 legislative session.
I am greatly humbled by the responsibility my caucus has entrusted to me in electing me to the office of House Majority Leader. Thank you for the faith you have placed in me to serve you in this role.
My greatest appreciation is to my wife Amanda for her steadfast support, and also to Owen, Noah and Sophia for the sacrifices they have made to allow me to serve. All of us know exactly what our families give to send us here and to do our work.
I am asked from time to time how I balance my responsibilities as husband and father with the work of being a legislative leader. While it certainly has its challenges, this job would be impossible without their love and support.
To Speaker Paulsen, thank you for your hard work and dedication to this great state. The people of Iowa have been well-served by your leadership, and the House Republican Caucus owes you a debt of gratitude.
To Speaker Upmeyer, congratulations. It is an honor to serve with you. I am excited about what we will accomplish together and I am proud to call you my friend. It is already very clear to me that we have made a wise decision in selecting you as our Speaker and I have no doubt that you will serve this body and the state of Iowa very well. Your work ethic and commitment to our state is unparalleled. Once again, Republicans in this state have proven that capable women are able to rise to the highest levels of political office.
I’ve also greatly enjoyed working with many House Democrats in a constructive and positive way to craft public policy with the best interests of Iowans in mind. I look forward to continuing to build those relationships wherever possible.
Over the past five years, House Republicans have committed to passing a balanced budget while not using one-time money for ongoing obligations. Our common sense budgeting principles are what the taxpayers of this state expect from their government. While it is not always easy, it is the responsible thing to do. House Republicans will continue to insist on passing a budget that does not spend more than the state collects in revenue. We will continue to make sure that we fund the priority needs of Iowans within the revenue they have provided.
There is no question that this will require difficult decisions of this body, but the reason that we will be successful and we will be able to meet these challenges is because of our fiscal responsibility. Setting budget priorities is never an easy task, but the responsibility we have shown in the past will make it much less difficult this year 14 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE 1st Day
to meet these challenges. So let us continue down that path. Let us not just meet the needs of today but leave this state on solid ground for tomorrow.
We will have other challenges as well. House Republicans have heard loud and clear that school funding needs to be set early and that is exactly what we plan to do. Not only do our schools need to plan their budgets, but they need to know that the commitment we make is one upon which they can depend.
House Republicans will continue to work toward policies that lead to greater economic prosperity. Let us continue our work to build a highly-skilled workforce, and to foster a business climate in which high-paying career jobs are plentiful. The economy of tomorrow depends on our work today to streamline government and create an environment that makes it easier to do business and grow jobs in the state.
I’m a sixth-generation Iowan. My great-great-great grandfather Hagenow came here to work the land and make a better life for his family. My own parents, who are sitting behind me today, chose to bring their family back to Iowa because of what this state had to offer. I am now blessed to have that same opportunity for my family. My prayer is that our work here will help to secure those same opportunities and that same great Iowa for my own children and the next generation of Iowans.
Let’s continue to show Iowans that we are able to work together. House Republicans will hold ourselves to the same high standards that Iowans have for us: To work diligently, to work together, and get to the job done.
Thank you Madam Speaker.
