Today, House Republican Leader Kraig Paulsen said there is no way the governor has picked up help from the Republicans. Here's his statement:
Paulsen Reacts to Governor's Statement on Federal Deductibility
(DES MOINES)—House Republican Leader Kraig Paulsen (R-Hiawatha) today issued a statement in response to Gov. Culver’s recent claim to have picked up a few Republican votes for the Democrat plan to eliminate federal deductibility and raise taxes on Iowans.
“While the governor may be eager to raise taxes to support the most spending in the state’s history, he is in error that Republicans will help him with that task. There are no Republicans in the House that will vote to eliminate federal deductibility. House Republicans continue to stand firm with Iowans and will not support any attempts to raise taxes on Iowa’s families.”

That's a misleading headline. It sounds like a Paulsen claim regarding the tax rates, but it's just a Paulsen claim regarding Republican support for the bill.
How about "Paulsen Denies Republicans Will Back Tax Bill"
