Iowa group seeks emergency hearing over LGBTQ leadership ban
The BLinC group requests an emergency hearing on January 24 25 2018 to reinstate the Christian student group’s leadership rights after the university deregistered it over Marcus Miller an openly gay student’s eligibility. Attorneys argue the move violates free speech religion and equal access while noting other groups enforce beliefs. The Becket Fund represents BLinC and cites US guidelines supporting open membership.
