Gov. Kim Reynolds matches Regents request in full for university funding in budget report - Alex Connor, Iowa State Daily

Despite a trend of lagging state appropriations to the Iowa Board of Regents in years past, Gov. Kim Reynolds recommended to fully fund the universities’ general operating request of $499 million, in her fiscal budget for FY2020. In September 2018, the Regents requested $628.4 million from the state legislature for the 2020 fiscal year between the three regent universities, with $499 million dedicated solely for higher education use. http://www.iowastatedaily.com/news/politics_and_administration/city/gov-kim-reynolds-matches-regents-request-in-full-for-university/article_d0a90976-18f3-11e9-8346-63f7b1cfaf12.html
