Senate File 245, our bipartisan bill allowing student athletes to be compensated for marketing their own names, images, and likenesses, passed the Judiciary Committee on a voice vote without opposition. Thanks to the current and former student athletes who worked with us on this.
Glad to have the full support of every one my @IowaSenate Democratic colleagues behind this effort to restore voting rights for thousands of Iowans. https://t.co/V5HDDczA7M
Today, we advanced out of subcommittee a bipartisan bill I helped create to increase penalties for assaults of sports officials. Ankeny-based Basketball official Randy Heimerman spoke with us as we put this legislation together to address an alarming trend in the sports world. https://t.co/aCeqgKV8BF
Today would be a great day to have an order signed restoring voting rights to Iowans who have completed their felony sentences. If Iowa is serious about addressing racial injustice, lets be sure we arent in a worse position on voting rights than we were 15 years ago #Juneteenth
Thank you to @RepRuthAGaines for working with me to put together todays discussion at the Capitol on the killing of George Floyd, protests in our community, and issues of civil rights and racial justice with our community leaders, faith leaders, @DMPolice, and elected officials. https://t.co/EYSNKVZBN0
Earlier this week, I joined the Drake Black Law Student Association and Drake OUTLaws (a LGBTQIA+ law student organization) at the Capitol and walk to the National Bar Association Memorial for a program promoting racial justice and equality under the law in our legal system. https://t.co/nPFGUVlr35
Today, I filed bipartisan legislation in the Iowa Senate to establish a framework for allowing college athletes to be able to benefit from the promotional use of their names, images, and likenesses. The bill is Senate File 2058: https://t.co/eXVMNU6XSW https://t.co/CquRWqbBHN
It was a fun, busy weekend as we enjoyed a night of camping at Yellow Banks in Pleasant Hill, participated in the Capital City Pride Stride 5k, l marched in the Capital City Pride Parade, and held a 2024 campaign kickoff fundraiser in Altoona. https://t.co/3BWdiLVej7
We must recognize that we still have a long journey ahead in our pursuit of racial justice and equality. Martin Luther King, Jr. had a powerful legacy of always finding the strength to take that next step despite how difficult the last one may have been. We must keep moving. https://t.co/mBLmNHnE1I
