Wait for the ensuing controversy on the numbers later. Debate on this bill had been expected this morning. It never happened. Both parties went to caucus around 11:30. They are supposed to return to begin debate at 2pm. Here's a breakdown of what's up for debate in this Des Moines Register story.
By my count, there are 101 amendments. This could take a while. A legislator joked this could be two days. I hope he was kidding.
