She was decommissioned for the last time on October 26, 1990 and stored at the Navy Inactive Ship Maintenance Facility in Philadelphia.  When the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard was closed in 1995, ex-Iowa was moved to Naval Station Newport.  As with the other Iowa-class ships, numerous museum groups wanted her as their star attraction.  The Congressional compromise in 1999 that sent ex-New Jersey from Bremerton to New Jersey, sent ex-Iowa to California, where a number of different groups vied to convert her into a museum ship.  It was reported that California Senator Dianne Feinstein inserted $3 million into the 2000 defense appropriation bill to pay for the tow, and as a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee she was in a position to do so.
