4 "Sec. . Section 15A.1, Code 2001, is amended by
5 adding the following new subsection:
6 NEW SUBSECTION. 5. In addition to the
7 requirements of subsections 2 and 3, a state agency
8 shall not provide a grant, loan, or other financial
9 assistance to a private person or on behalf of a
10 private person unless the business for whose benefit
11 the financial assistance is to be provided pays at
12 minimum a living wage to its employees. For purposes
13 of this subsection, "living wage" means an hourly wage
14 of no less than the annualized federal poverty level
15 for a family of four, as defined by the most recently
16 revised poverty income guidelines as published by the
17 United States department of health and human services,
18 divided by two thousand eighty. If any provision of
19 this subsection, which relates to a living wage paid
20 by a business applying for or receiving state
21 financial assistance, is inconsistent or conflicts
22 with other provisions of chapter 15 or this chapter,
23 the provision that specifies the higher wage rate
24 prevails."
