Died when the session ended · The General Assembly adjourned on April 19, 2024. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died.

What it does

This bill relates to gender identity and sex under the Iowa civil rights Act. The bill amends the definition of “gender identity” to only include persons who have reached the age of majority. The bill defines “sex” as the biological sex designation on a person’s birth certificate. The sex designation is determined by reproductive anatomy and chromosomes of a person. The bill provides in instances where there is a conflict of accommodation between a person who identifies with the sex designation given at birth and a person who does not, the person who identifies with the sex designation given at birth shall not be unduly burdened by the accommodation made for the person who does not identify with the sex designation given to the person at birth.
