(Des Moines, Iowa) —A lawmaker from west-central Iowa has introduced a bill into the Iowa legislature that calls for a  permanent monument of Hawkeye legends Caitlin Clark and former coach Lisa Bluder. House File 203 was introduced Monday by State Rep. Carter Nordman of Panora. In a post on “X,” Rep. Nordman said “In honor of @CaitlinClark22’s jersey retirement and the historic success of @IowaWBB, I have filed a bill to commission a statue of Caitlin and @LisaBluder here on the Iowa Capitol complex.”

Nordman said also, “These two women have brought great pride and attention to our state and women’s sports. They deserve a place at their Capitol for Iowans to honor their incredible accomplishments!”

The monument would be located on the grounds of the Capitol, but a location would be determined later. It would be paid for by tax credits.
