  1 10    Section 1.  Section 279.59, Code 2003, is amended to read
  1 11 as follows:
  1 12    279.59  ACCESS BY PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION ASSOCIATIONS.
  1 13    1.  The board of directors of a school district shall
  1 14 provide not-for-profit, professional education associations
  1 15 that offer membership to teachers or administrators equal
  1 16 access to teacher or administrator mailboxes for distribution
  1 17 of professional literature.
  1 18    2.  Notwithstanding section 20.9, a school district may,
  1 19 upon a teacher's or administrator's written request, deduct
  1 20 from the salary or wages of the teacher or administrator an
  1 21 amount specified by the teacher or administrator for payment
  1 22 of dues or membership fees for the teacher's or
  1 23 administrator's membership in a not-for-profit, professional
  1 24 education association.  If a written request is granted, all
  1 25 other written requests for salary or wage deductions for
  1 26 payment of dues or membership fees for membership in the same
  1 27 not-for-profit, professional education association shall also
  1 28 be granted.  The teacher or administrator may withdraw the
  1 29 request for the deduction at any time by giving the school
  1 30 district thirty days' written notice.
  1 31    3.  For purposes of this section, unless the context
  1 32 otherwise requires, "professional education association" means
  1 33 an association in which the majority of members are
  1 34 practitioners licensed in accordance with chapter 272.
