Ugh, Iowa GOP on 2018 session

Fuck you, Republicans

GOP lawmakers with majorities in both chambers plan to support legislation in 2018 that will include tax cuts, immigration enforcement and the use of public education money for private schooling. They're also interested in adding more abortion restrictions and reinforcing gun rights.

Democrats, who continue to be in the minority, say they're willing to work with Republicans on some issues but will push back on any legislation they consider extreme.

Minnesota and Oregon look more attractive all the time now.
