Iowa
is
a
member
of
the
streamlined

tax
11
agreement,
which
is
an
effort
to
administer
state

use
taxes
in
all
participating
states
according
to
the
same
13
simplified
system.
Under
the
agreement,
Iowa
must
periodically
14
make
changes
in
the
administration
of
the
sales
and
use
15
taxes
in
order
to
remain
in
compliance.
The
governing
board

agreement
considers

This

amends
the
