Every commission, board, committee, officer or other governing
body of the state, or of any county, township, school district or
city, and every person acting as contracting or purchasing agent for
any such commission, board, committee, officer or other governing
body shall use only those products and provisions grown and coal
produced within the state of Iowa, when they are found in marketable
quantities in the state and are of a quality reasonably suited to the
purpose intended, and can be secured without additional cost over
foreign products or products of other states. This section shall
apply to horticultural products grown in this state even if the
products are not in the stage of processing that the agency usually
purchases the product. However, this section does not apply to a
school district purchasing food while the school district is
participating in the federal school lunch program.
All requests for proposals for materials, products, supplies,
provisions, and other needed articles and services to be purchased at
public expense shall not knowingly be written in such a way as to
exclude an Iowa-based company capable of filling the needs of the
purchasing entity from submitting a responsive proposal.
