But Thursday's news release suggested the closure decision was partly based on the state's struggle to attract and retain enough staff in the rural southwest region, especially with federal officials' demand that services there improve.
"Continued operation of the Glenwood Resource Center has become untenable," Senate Majority Leader Jack Whitver, R-Ankeny, said in the release.
Earlier:Severely disabled Iowans are dying at a state-run institution. Staff say care has declined, while the state defends its care.
The institution has been plagued by scandal for years. In 2019, the Des Moines Register reported that frontline staffers blamed inadequate medical care for a spike in deaths among the facility's fragile residents. Jerry Foxhoven, who was the state's human services director, denied there was any problem. But he subsequently was ousted from his job, as were the Glenwood Resource Center's superintendent and In addition to the allegations of poor medical care, former managers accused the facility's ex-superintendent of organizing unethical "sexual arousal" research on residents.

The U.S. Department of Justice launched an investigation into the controversy. In December 2020, federal investigators determined the institution appeared to have violated its residents' civil rights by denying sufficient medical care and exposing them to unethical experimentation.
The Department of Justice later declared that Iowa relies too heavily on institutional care for people with disabilities. Federal and state officials have been negotiating legal settlements to address both of those contentions.
Glenwood families are overwhelmed, stunned by news of planned closure In 2020, Garcia launched a renewed effort to find community placements for people in the two state institutions, but she said any such moves would be voluntary.

Ousted Iowa director to file whistleblower case, lawyer says
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - The ousted Iowa Department of Human Services director will pursue a wrongful termination lawsuit, alleging he was let go after objecting to a pay arrangement for the governor's deputy chief of staff, his lawyer said Wednesday.
Jerry Foxhoven, a 67-year-old legal scholar known for his frequent workplace praise of the late rapper Tupac Shakur, will file a whistleblower claim with the State Appeal Board, his attorney Tom Duff said. That's the first step toward pursuing a lawsuit against state government.
Foxhoven is expected to announce the action at a news conference Thursday. It's the latest development stemming from a personnel decision that has put Gov. Kim Reynolds on the defensive and prompted inquiries by state and federal watchdogs.
