House Speaker Pat Grassley, R-New Hartford, said on a May 5 episode of "Iowa Press" on Iowa PBS that even though Reynolds' proposal has been around for several years, this year was the first time that the 24 new Republican members of the Iowa House had encountered it. 

"We've had members that have moved from solid noes that are getting more comfortable as we're working through modifying the language," Grassley said. "And I'm sure it will be something we continue to talk about."
