Iowan

The law, which takes effect July 1, opens trans and gender expansive Iowans up to discrimination in housing, employment, education and public services.

“We've already seen sort of the ripple effect happen with Iowans, and I think we'll definitely see a larger increase now since Monday.”

But a lower court temporarily blocked the ban from going into effect after providers argued in a lawsuit that it goes against Iowans' constitutional rights.

“So this is one way that I can support my Iowans and push back on the Biden administration.”

“Iowans are strong and resilient, and we will get through this together.”
