A U.S. motorcycle manufacturer says it plans to increase production in Poland after President Donald Trump ordered tariffs on steel and aluminum and the European Union retaliated with tariffs on motorcycles, but the company said the move will not reduce jobs at its U.S. plants.

Last month, Minnesota-based Polaris Industries said it was considering moving production of its Indian Motorcycles brand from the plant in Iowa to one in Poland as a way to deal with the retaliatory tariffs.

On Wednesday, Polaris CEO Scott Wine said the higher production in Opole, Poland, next year had been planned “for quite some time,” but avoiding tariffs was an added benefit. His spoke as the company released second-quarter earnings , which were better than expected.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A district court judge has granted a temporary halt on several provisions of Iowa’s new voter identification law. Polk County Judge Karen Romano’s injunction approval, made public Wednesday, could impact the law’s rollout in the November general election.

The injunction will stop the state from implementing components of the 2017 law that shortened the time to cast absentee ballots from 40 days to 29 days. The state will also be prohibited for now from requiring that absentee ballots include a voter verification number.

Romano also ordered Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate to stop distributing promotional material that doesn’t specify that identification won’t be required to vote in 2018.

The ID requirement is not in effect this year as part of a soft roll-out period, though voters were asked to show ID this year. They were still allowed to cast a regular ballot without valid ID, an option that will end next year.

The lawsuit’s plaintiffs are the League of United Latin American Citizens of Iowa and an Iowa State University student.

PELLA, Iowa (AP) — Employees have gone back to work at a giant equipment manufacturer in central Iowa that was badly damaged by a tornado last week. The Des Moines Register reports that nearly three-quarters of Vermeer’s employees returned to work Tuesday. The company’s Pella plants employ 2,700 people. Several of the company’s plants were hit by an EF-3 tornado last week. The storm was one of at least a dozen twisters that touched down in the central part of the state.

Vermeer spokeswoman Liz Sporrer says several buildings sustained damage. Two more plants are expected to open at the end of next week. Seven workers were treated for minor injuries after the tornado hit. No employees were seriously injured or killed.

(Corrected sequence of events)

One person was seriously injured during a collision between a pickup and car Tuesday afternoon, in Union County. The Sheriff’s Office reports a non-contact pickup truck pulling a stock trailer, was westbound on 240th Avenue, and a 2014 Chevy Cruz was eastbound. Due to the gravel dust kicked-up from the non-contact pickup and trailer, visibility was reduced, causing a 2014 Dodge RAM pickup traveling westbound and the car, to collide head-on. The accident happened at around 12:03-p.m.. The driver of the car, 50-year old Brandon Scott Munyon, of Kellerton, was seriously injured and flown by Air Ambulance to Mercy Medical Center in Des Moines. The driver of the pickup, 50-year old Daniel James Ide, of Afton, complained of pain and possible injury, but did not seek immediate medical attention.

The vehicles sustained a combined $20,000 damage, and were considered a total loss. No citations were issued.
