Lindsay James is Lying to Iowans

September 18, 2026

Liberal Lindsay James is desperately trying to rewrite her record.

In a new ad, James claims she supports “common sense rules to keep sports fair for boys and for girls” and says, “Parents know what’s best for our kids.” But her voting record proves otherwise:

  • Linday James voted against preventing men from competing in girls’ sports.
  • Lindsay James voted against a bill that bans gender identity theory instruction in K‑6 classrooms. 
  • Lindsay James voted against requiring parental notification if a student wants to change their gender at school.
  • Lindsay James voted against legislation that would have required students to use school bathrooms corresponding to their biological sex

“Lindsay James can lie as much as she wants in a campaign ad, but she can’t rewrite her voting record. Iowans can look at her votes for themselves, and no amount of election-year spin can erase them.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Emily Tuttle
