In response to Rep. Dean Fisher's 3/21/2025 editorial. Rep. Dean Fisher’s latest assault on Iowa’s libraries isn’t about protecting taxpayers or children – it’s about silencing viewpoints he dislikes and keeping voters scared, uninformed, and easy to control. His support for House ...
House File 880 (Formerly HF 284) is a bill that seeks to prevent Iowa Libraries from being members of the Iowa Library Association and the American Library Association (ALA) by restricting funds to them if they are dues paying members of these organizations. Those dues are paid for by taxpayer ...
