Iowa House members return to Des Moines on January 8 for the opening day of the 2024 legislative session. Although the balance of power remains the same (64 Republicans, 36 Democrats), I’m publishing a new version of this post to note small changes in leadership or among the chairs, vice chairs, and members of standing House committees. Where relevant, I’ve noted changes since last year’s session.

Thirty-eight House members (24 Republicans and fourteen Democrats) are serving their first term in the legislature. Two Republicans previously held other legislative offices: Craig Johnson served one and a half terms in the Iowa Senate, and David Young served two terms in Congress.

The House members include 71 men and 29 women (sixteen Democrats and thirteen Republicans), down from 31 women who served in 2021 and 2022. The record for women’s representation in the Iowa House was 34 female lawmakers in 2019.

Six African Americans (Democrats Ako Abdul-Samad, Jerome Amos, Jr., Ruth Ann Gaines, Mary Madison, and Ross Wilburn, and Republican Eddie Andrews) serve in the legislature’s lower chamber. Abdul-Samad is Iowa’s longest-serving Black state legislator, and Gaines chairs the Legislative Black Caucus.

Republican Mark Cisneros was the first Latino elected to the Iowa legislature in 2020, and Democrat Adam Zabner is now the second Latino serving in the chamber. Republican Henry Stone became only the second Asian American to serve in the House after the 2020 election, and Democrat Megan Srinivas was also elected in November. The other 92 state representatives are white.

Democrat Elinor Levin is the only out LGBTQ member of the Iowa House. She and Zabner are also the first Jews to serve in the chamber for more than three decades. Abdul-Samad is the only Muslim member of the House, and Srinivas is Hindu.

Some non-political trivia: the 100 Iowa House members include two with the surname Meyer (a Democrat and a Republican) and two Thompsons and a Thomson (all Republicans).

As for popular first names, there are four men named David or Dave, four named Thomas or Tom, three Roberts (a Robert, a Bob, and a Bobby), three Brians, three men named Michael (two go by Mike), a Jon and two Johns, two named Charles (a Chuck and a Charley), and two men each named Jeff, Ken, Steve, Matt, Austin, and Josh or Joshua. There are also two Elizabeths (one goes by Beth), an Ann and an Anne, and two women each named Heather, Megan, and Shannon. As recently as 2020, four women named Mary served in the Iowa House, but now there is only one.

Iowa House Republican leadership team

Pat Grassley remains speaker, a post he gained in late 2019. First elected in 2006, Grassley represents House district 57, covering Butler County and part of Bremer County.

Matt Windschitl remains majority leader. He was first elected in 2006 and represents House district 15, covering all of Harrison County and part of Pottawattamie County.

John Wills remains House speaker pro-tem, a position he has held since late 2019. First elected in 2014, Wills represents House district 10, covering Dickinson and Palo Alto counties, and parts of Clay and Kossuth.

Henry Stone remains majority whip. He was first elected in 2020 and represents House district 9, covering Emmet and Winnebago counties and most of Kossuth.

The Iowa House Republicans website now shows only three assistant majority leaders. Last year, there were four, including Brent Siegrist, but he is no longer listed as part of the leadership team. The other three assistant majority leaders are the same as in 2023:

• David Young was first elected in 2022 in House district 28, covering parts of Dallas County. He served in the U.S. House from 2015 through 2018.
• Craig Johnson was elected in 2022 in House district 67, covering Delaware County, much of Buchanan, and a small area in Dubuque County. He previously served six years in the Iowa Senate but switched districts when the map adopted in 2021 paired him with another Republican senator.
• Jon Dunwell was first elected in a 2021 special election and represents House district 38, covering most of Jasper County.

Iowa House Democratic leadership team

Following the 2022 elections, House Democrats chose the first all-woman leadership team in Iowa legislative history. Nothing has changed since last year.

Jennifer Konfrst became minority leader in June 2021. She was first elected in 2018 and represents House district 43, covering Windsor Heights, Clive, and part of West Des Moines in Polk County.

Lindsay James remains minority whip. She was first elected in 2018 and represents House district 71, covering part of Dubuque.

The four assistant minority leaders are:

• Amy Nielsen was first elected in 2016 and represents House district 85, covering North Liberty, Solon, and some of rural Johnson County.
• Heather Matson was first elected in 2018, lost her 2020 re-election bid, and won in 2022 in House district 42, covering part of Ankeny in Polk County.
• Sue Cahill was first elected in 2020 and represents House district 52, covering most of Marshall County.
• Sharon Steckman was first elected in 2008 and represents House district 59, covering Mason City and some other areas in Cerro Gordo County.
