SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION

A Joint Resolution authorizing the temporary sale of merchandise at a toy benefit for Iowa children on the state capitol complex grounds.

   WHEREAS, A Brotherhood Aimed Towards Education (ABATE) of Iowa District 4 holds a motorcycle rally toy run each year to collect toys for Iowa children; and
   WHEREAS, all donations from this toy run benefit Iowa children; and
   WHEREAS, ABATE of Iowa wishes to sell commemorative t-shirts, sweatshirts, lapel pins, and patches for the further benefit of Iowa children and to defray the costs of a police escort; and
   WHEREAS, ABATE of Iowa District 4 plans to hold a toy run on a date to be determined during the eighty-eighth general assembly; and
   WHEREAS, because 11 IAC 100.4(4) and 11 IAC 100.5(2) prohibit sales to state employees or to the public on the state capitol complex grounds without prior approval, ABATE of Iowa District 4 may not be permitted to sell commemorative t-shirts, sweatshirts, lapel pins, and patches for the benefit of Iowa children during its toy run; NOW THEREFORE,
BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF IOWA:

    Section 1.  Notwithstanding the prior approval requirements of 11 IAC 100.4(4) and 11 IAC 100.5(2), the department of administrative services shall permit ABATE of Iowa District 4 to sell commemorative t-shirts, sweatshirts, lapel pins, and patches on the state capitol complex grounds during the toy run held during the eighty-eighth general assembly, provided that ABATE of Iowa District 4 shall first provide the department of administrative services with a copy of an Iowa sales tax permit for the location of the sales, or proof of application for such a permit.
