University paper, faculty decry legislation to protect children from underage sex changes
In response to legislation that seeks to protect biological women being passed in Iowa, members of the University of Iowa community accused the bill of being 'anti-LGBTQ.'

State Senator Cherielynn Westrich, however, told Campus Reform that the bill aims to protect all children and is not targeting the LGBTQ community.

Recently passed legislation in Iowa has caught the attention of members of the University of Iowa (UI), who called it out for being "anti-LGBTQ." A state senator, however, spoke with Campus Reform about misconceptions surrounding her bill.

On Mar. 7, Senate File 482 was passed by the Iowa Senate, a piece of legislation that prohibits "persons from entering single and multiple occupancy restrooms or changing areas and other facilities in elementary and secondary schools that do not correspond with the person’s biological sex."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The University of Iowa aka Berzerkeley on the Prairie. Even Ithaca gives them a hat tip for their woke Marxism.

The Iowa Legislature has been kicking some tail this session. I had not heard of this, happy that we are joining up with other states doing the same.
The Republic is lost.

I never thought I would live to see the day that we actually have to pass legislation to protect children from life altering surgery

And I never thought I would see the day that a major political party oppose legislation to stop that
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

It's truly bizarre.
