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.”
The Des Moines Register documented more than 1,300 book removals from public schools due to the law by mid-February, when the poll question was written.
The Register is now aware of about 1,820 books — 615 of which are unique titles — removed from schools since the law went into effect July 1.
