(Radio Iowa) – Republicans and four Democrats in the Iowa Senate have voted to make an executive order issued by former President Trump state law. The proposal would ban K-through-12 public schools, community colleges and the three state universities from having diversity training that promotes race or sex stereotyping. Republican Senator Jeff Taylor of Sioux Center says stereotypes lead to discrimination. “We don’t want prejudice against anyone,” Taylor said. “We don’t want shaming of anyone because of what group they belong to because two wrongs will never make a right.”
Fourteen Democrats in the Senate opposed the bill. Senator Sarah Trone Garriott, a Democrat from West Des Moines, says the bill would lead to censorship. “This legislation will actually have a chilling effect on free speech in educational institutions,” Trone Garriott said. Senator Amy Sinclair, a Republican from Allerton, says there have been too many instances in which professors and administrators have stifled the free speech rights of conservative students. “Four in 10 American academics indicated in a survey that they would not hire a known Trump supporter for a job,” Sinclair said. “The chilling effect is occurring and it’s occurring at a very alarming rate and in very alarming situations.”
The bill would require first amendment training for university staff as well as members of student government. Republicans in the Iowa HOUSE have held three hearings this year to examine conservative students’ complaints about incidents at the University of Iowa, I-S-U and U-N-I.
Red Oak Police have arrested a man wanted on a Page County warrant. 22-year old Michael Wade Hamilton, of Red Oak, was arrested at around 3:25-a.m. Tuesday (March 8), on the warrant for Assault causing bodily injury. Hamilton was being held in the Montgomery County Jail on $1,000 bond.
(Radio Iowa) – The Iowa Senate has passed a bill to give Iowa law enforcement, including prison guards and others in the judicial system, “qualified immunity” from most lawsuits. Senator Dan Dawson of Council Bluffs, a special agent for the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation, says it’s important to place this legal concept in state law, as congress considers changes at the federal level. “We’re trying to conserve the current law of the land right now,” Dawson says, “because there’s a slew of political actors out there that have decided to make kicking law enforcement in their teeth a hobby every day.”
Senator Chris Cournoyer, a Republican from LeClaire, says the bill protects law enforcement acting in good faith in difficult situations. “A responding officer in a high pressure situation cannot hesitate or deliberate the intentions of the law for fear of a frivolous lawsuit,” Cournoyer said. “To be clear, this bill does not protect negligence, incompetence or officers that knowingly violate the law.”
The bill passed with the votes of all Republicans and a few Democrats. Senator Rob Hogg (HOHG, rhymes with “vogue”) of Cedar Rapids was among the dozen Democrats who opposed the bill. “I don’t want to have a system that says we’re going to insulate people from liability when they have violated a constitutional right,” Hogg says. The bill now goes to the Iowa House for consideration.
Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press
UNDATED (AP) — Les Miles is out as Kansas’ head coach just days after he was placed on administrative leave amid sexual misconduct allegations from his tenure at LSU. Kansas described Miles’ departure as a mutual agreement to part ways. He has three years left on his original five-year contract with the school. Last week, LSU released a 148-page review by a law firm about the university’s handling of sexual misconduct complaints. It described how Miles “tried to sexualize the staff of student workers in the football program by, for instance, allegedly demanding that he wanted blondes with big breasts, and ‘pretty girls.'”
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Creighton has lifted coach Greg McDermott’s suspension for making racially insensitive remarks to his players during a postgame talk. McDermott twice used the term “plantation” as part of an analogy urging team unity. He apologized but was suspended last Thursday. Athletic director Bruce Rasmussen says the coach understands that forgiveness must be earned and he is willing to work for it. McDermott will become active in a campus program designed to help participants better understand racism and create change. He will return for this week’s Big East Tournament and the NCAA Tournament that begins next week.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby says it could be years before its schools recover from the financial blow they took when the COVID-19 pandemic shut down sports. Bowlsby believes there is reason to feel good about the future. That includes the return of the men’s and women’s conference tournaments this week in Kansas City, Missouri.
IRVING, Texas (AP) — Oklahoma State guard Cade Cunningham is the fourth freshman to be selected as the Big 12 player of the year by the league’s coaches. The rest of the first team includes guards Jared Butler and Davion Mitchell from regular-season champion Baylor, guard Austin Reaves from Oklahoma and West Virginia forward Derek Culver. Baylor’s Scott Drew is the coach of the year for the second season in a row. The other freshmen tabbed the top player by Big 12 coaches were Oklahoma State’s Marcus Smart in 2013, Kansas State’s Michael Beasley in 2008 and Texas’ Kevin Durant in 2007.
UNDATED (AP) — Gonzaga remains entrenched at No. 1 in The Associated Press men’s college basketball poll in its bid to go wire-to-wire. The Zags received 61 of 63 first-place votes from a media panel as they attempt to become the first wire-to-wire No. 1 since Kentucky in 2014-15. Baylor had two first-place votes and moved back into the No. 2 slot after dropping a spot last week. Illinois, Michigan and Iowa rounded out the top 5. No. 8 Arkansas is in the top 10 for the first time since reaching No. 1 in 1994-95.
NEW YORK (AP) — Connecticut forward Isaiah Whaley and St. John’s point guard Posh Alexander have been named co-winners of the Big East Conference’s defensive player of the year award. The league’s most improved player award was shared by St. John’s guard-forward Julian Champagnie and Xavier forward Zach Freemantle. Tyler Polley of UConn was the winner of the league’s sixth man award and Mitch Ballock of Creighton received the conference’s sportsmanship award. The league’s head coaches selected the awards. They weren’t permitted to vote for their own players.
