Iowa’s natural resources and outdoor recreation are on the line and now is the time to take action! Lawmakers are considering a proposal to repeal the Natural Resources & Outdoor Recreation Trust Fund, which would limit our ability to invest in clean water, healthy soil, and outdoor spaces. Let your voice be heard—tell your legislators to oppose SJR 6 and protect Iowa’s outdoor future!

Here’s what you can do:
✅ Call or email your legislators and ask them to oppose SJR 6.

✅ Contact the full Senate State Government Committee and urge them to vote against it.

✅ Attend a Town Hall this weekend and speak up in person. (List in the comments below)

More details you need are available below from the Iowa Natural Heritage Foundation.

UPDATE 3/4: SJR 6 will be reviewed by the full Senate State Government Committee tomorrow, March 5 at 11am.

There is no opportunity for public comment at the meeting, so it's important the committee members hear directly from Iowans before then! Find their contact info in the post below.

-----------------------------------------------------------

The voters spoke.

Voters created the Natural Resources and Outdoor Recreation Trust Fund in 2010.

Voters have urged the legislature to fund the Trust for the past 15 years, which the legislature has failed to do.

Now, some legislators claim that voters no longer care about this protected trust fund for clean water, wildlife habitat, outdoor recreation and agricultural conservation.

Despite an overflow crowd mostly in opposition to the bill, Senate Joint Resolution 6 (a resolution attempting to repeal the Natural Resources and Outdoor Recreation Trust Fund) passed out of a three-person subcommittee this week and could be brought to the full Senate State Government Committee as early as Wednesday, February 26.

We should be investing in clean water, healthy soil and outdoor recreation opportunities instead of limiting our ability to do so. The committee needs to hear that Iowans still support the Trust Fund, and that it would be a violation of voters’ will to kill it.

Here are three ways you can help:

1) Call or email your legislators and ask them to oppose SJR 6.

2) Contact the full Senate State Government Committee and ask them to oppose SJR 6.

As part of the assessment process, the Iowa Downtown Resource Center will first conduct a community survey to identify strengths and areas for improvement. Clear Lakers will have the opportunity to share their thoughts and feedback through this pre-visit survey, which will be made available in late July.

IEDA expects to prepare a comprehensive 30- to 40-page report detailing both short- and long-term recommendations for enhancing Clear Lake’s downtown.

🧊 Yellow Bass - Fair: Bass are being caught on small spoons and jigs, especially near sunset.
