School board candidates Meg Dickinson (District 4) and Nancy Baker Curtis (District 3) and at-large candidate Shaylee Vander Velden have received the support of several groups, including the DCG chapter of Unite Against Book Bans, that are in favor of providing books that have been described as pornographic to minors, including sexually explicit graphic novels.
Dickinson herself, along with DCG’s chapter of Unite Against Book Bans, has been vocal in her opposition to Gov. Kim Reynolds in response to Reynolds signing bills banning “gender-affirming health care” for minor children and requiring students to use bathrooms and locker room facilities that correspond with their biological sex.
