LWV of Iowa and One Iowa filed an amicus brief in the US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit supporting affirmance of a district court decision enjoining a LGBTQIA+ book ban and “don’t say gay” law in the state’s schools. The brief argued (1) the book ban illegally mandated the removal of books from shelves based on their viewpoint; (2) that the “don’t say gay” law would hurt LGBTQIA+ students and their families; and (3) that the laws were enacted as intentional discrimination.
