(ABC 6 News) — The ACLU along with local law firms are again looking to the courts to block Iowa’s so-called “book ban law” claiming it violates the 1st and 14th Amendments.
The law bans any book depicting a sex act from being in school libraries.
A judge initially put the law on hold, but the State appealed, eventually allowing the law to go into effect. Now the ACLU is launching a new effort to get the law blocked.
So far, the courts have not responded to the ACLU’s legal action.
