*Gov. Reynolds Statement on Iowa Senate Passing Foreign Ownership of Land Bill* 

  

DES MOINES – Gov. Kim Reynolds issued the following statement in response the Iowa Senate passing SF 2204: 
 

“Iowa plays a major role in feeding and fueling the world, and it is important we maintain our dominance as the leading agriculture powerhouse. But as threats of foreign ownership of land adapt, so should our laws. American soil should remain in American hands. I am pleased that the senate has passed my bill providing greater protections for Iowa farmland and increased penalties for foreign owners that don’t comply with our laws.”
