    Iowa Legislature · Published Jan 22, 2021 · Reviewed Oct 22, 2026

    Adds sexually motivated extortion to registrable offenses and sets an out-of-state registrant's period at the longer of the other state's or Iowa's. The bill history shows the one Senate amendment, S-3182, ruled not germane, so this should be the text that was signed; the enrolled PDF was not read separately.
