Gender equity mandate for city boards and commissions effective Jan 1 (Iowa). Forced 'equality' (mathematically?)

Uh huh.

Is there also a (bidrectional) equity mandate for all the other governmental positions? Cleanup, divorce courts, social workers, etc?

If not, this is all just a power grab and has nothing to do with equality.

You should x-post this to /r/Iowa, if you haven't already.

It's finally happening. These "equality" mandates will only happen in male-dominated positions. I never thought something so explicitly discriminatory would happen in America.

How about everyone work hard and let the cards fall were they may.

Four of the city’s five Board of Ethics members are women. But, come the new year, such gender congruence [...] will be in violation of Iowa law.

I don't suppose the woman who will be ejected from that Board of Ethics will go without a fuss.
