艾奥瓦州议长格拉斯利排除召开特别会议削弱当选州长桑德职权
艾奥瓦州波尔克县得梅因市消息：艾奥瓦州众议院议长帕特·格拉斯利11月6日表示，共和党人不会召开州议会特别会议，以在民主党人当选州长罗布·桑德明年1月就职前削弱其职权。
格拉斯利当天在众议院共和党党团会议后对记者作出上述表态，党团会议同时选举他连任众议院议长。桑德在11月3日的中期选举中击败共和党人扎克·拉恩，成为自2006年以来首位赢得艾奥瓦州州长选举的民主党人，共和党自2016年以来一直同时掌控州议会与州长办公室。
桑德11月6日在艾奥瓦公共电视台《艾奥瓦新闻界》节目录制中表示，他将敦促共和党人不要召开特别会议限制其职权。格拉斯利说，限制当选州长职权不是当天党团会议的讨论重点。桑德将于明年1月就职，接替即将卸任的共和党州长金·雷诺兹。
Iowa Speaker Pat Grassley Rules Out Special Session to Limit Governor-Elect Rob Sand's Powers
DES MOINES, Iowa — Iowa House Speaker Pat Grassley said on November 6 that Republicans will not call a special session of the legislature to weaken the powers of Democratic Governor-elect Rob Sand before Sand takes office next January.
Grassley made the remarks to reporters after a House Republican caucus meeting that also reelected him as speaker. Sand defeated Republican Zach Lahn in the November 3 midterm elections, becoming the first Democrat to win an Iowa governor's race since 2006; Republicans have controlled both the legislature and the governor's office since 2016.
Appearing on Iowa PBS's Iowa Press on November 6, Sand said he would urge Republicans not to hold a special session to limit his powers. Grassley said restricting the governor-elect's authority was not a focus of the caucus meeting. Sand takes office next January, succeeding outgoing Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds.
