Only half?
One-third of poll respondents think removing 615 unique titles -- 1,820 books --- is "about right". 13% say "this does not go far enough".
Headline: Des Moines Register, 3/17/2024
Half of Iowans believe the state’s new book ban law — which has resulted in the removal of more than a thousand books from public schools — goes too far, a new Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll finds, while a third view the law and subsequent removals as “about right.”
Thirteen percent believe “this does not go far enough,” and 3% aren’t sure.
In May 2023, Gov. Kim Reynolds signed Senate File 496, a sweeping education law that bans nearly all books depicting sex acts from public schools, among other changes. The law exempts religious books.
