Iowa Library Association (ILA)

An organization that hires lobbyists at the Iowa Legislature (2025–26 session). Its lobbyists filed 92 positions on 30 bills, one filing per lobbyist per bill, and again on each refiling, so the two counts differ. Each bill is counted once, under the most recent position filed on it, even when the bill was renumbered mid-session ; the organization changed position on 1 bill
