Iowa stylists, barbers, speak out against bill trimming hair education requirements

IOWA (KWWL) -- This week, the Iowa House of Representatives could debate a new bill, which targets current education requirements for people interested in a career in hair. H.F. 711 is eligible for debate this week. The bill allows a person to pursue a career with hair through an apprenticeship type of program- directly working under a licensed stylist or barber without graduating from cosmetology school. The bill does require the unlicensed person to have two hours of education before entering the program. After completing 2,000 hours, they would be eligible to apply for a license.

Long-Term Care Ombudsman requested an increase for the long-standing 50-dollar personal allowance the state provides for Medicaid beneficiaries. The last three years have seen continued efforts by the ombudsman and advocates for seniors to raise the benchmark, with a recent proposal of increasing to 65-dollars with cost-of-living adjustments in 2026. The Senate advanced a bill out of committee earlier this month, although the House hasn't advanced its version since referring it to the Health and Human Services Committee in February.

We need government accountability. Trump, Musk and DOGE are providing it. | Letters

We need government accountability. Trump, Musk and DOGE are providing it. President Donald Trump, Elon Musk and DOGE are doing the Lord's work.
