This bill amends Section 2.10 of the Iowa Code regarding the payment of per diem to members of the general assembly. It specifies that members, excluding certain leadership positions, will receive an annual salary of $25,000 and a per diem for office expenses during legislative sessions. The bill modifies the duration for which per diem payments are made, reducing the maximum allowable days from 110 to 55 calendar days for the first regular session and from 100 to 50 calendar days for the second regular session.

Additionally, the bill maintains that members from Polk County will receive a per diem amount equal to three-fourths of that received by non-Polk County members. Each member will also continue to receive a $300 monthly allowance for various expenses, and travel expenses will be reimbursed based on established rates for actual travel to and from the seat of government. The changes aim to streamline the per diem payment process and adjust the financial provisions for legislative members.
