#ialeg — Public Fediverse posts

I am so proud of you, Iowa!! A huge turnout, a big win! An outstanding chant!

"Cheers rang out down the hallway as a bill that would have legalized discrimination against trans and nonbinary Iowans failed to pass an Iowa House subcommittee Wednesday.

...Democratic Rep. Sami Scheetz (D-Cedar Rapids) and Republican Reps. Casey Thomson (R-Charles City) and John Wills (R-Spirit Lake) voted against the bill, while cheers and chants of 'Fuck you, J-Dog'—a reference to Rep. Jeff Shipley, who introduced the bill—rose from the hallway outside the committee room."
