Deadline Coming for New State Budget

Iowa state government could run out of money, and be forced to shutdown in a couple of weeks if lawmakers don't pass a budget by July 1. Tension in the statehouse is mounting over the fast-approaching deadline. The state can't spend a dime after July 1 unless state lawmakers vote for it. According to KCCI, The statehouse says no budget means state troopers could be cut back, state parks could close and state workers could go without paychecks.
