Jones Votes “No” to Limit Medical Liability

Des Moines, IA (KICD) — The Republican juggernaut in Des Moines continues to pass legislation they deem “priority” with their absolute control of the Governor’s office and both houses of the legislature. State Representative Ann Meyer is a Fort Dodge nurse who says high awards are hurting Iowan’s access to care.

But Megan Jones from Sioux Rapids broke with her party and voted “no” on the measure Friday.

The new law caps non-economic damage at 2 million dollars.
