Transphobic discrimination legalized in Iowa

Author: Trudy Ring

Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds, a Republican, has signed a bill into law removing gender identity from the Iowa Civil Rights Act.

Iowa Republicans said that removing gender identity from nondiscrimination law would help them defend other anti-trans laws in court, including its ban on gender-affirming care for trans youth, its law barring trans students from using restrooms aligned with their gender identity, and another keeping trans women and girls from participating in female school sports.
