Kim Reynolds doesn’t think you should be able to make your own choices about when you start a family. She wants the government to control your body, your choices, and your future. She doesn’t trust women to make their own healthcare choices. Iowans do not want this.
SCOTUS’s recent decision regarding the removal of affirmative action in admission and educational institutions is a huge set back for our country. This is our statement regarding SCOTUS’s decision. WE WILL fight for racial equality, equity, and justice in Iowa and the US!
You are misusing racial “equality” to justify racial inequity.
For CENTURIES, white people have enjoyed admission preferences via legacies, donors, employee families, and more. These are benefits that URMs did not and still struggle to get.
This is a giant leap back for the US
