What’s in it

AI summary Iowa currently uses the English language as a main way to connect people across the state. This change would allow the legislature to declare that other languages can also help bring people together.1

Read the official explanation

This bill amends Code section 1.18, regarding Iowa English language reaffirmation, to provide that the general assembly declares that the common thread binding individuals in the state includes, in addition to the English language, any other language deemed necessary to achieve the purposes of the state.
