I support this bill. Freedom of speech should be protected and the ability of companies like Summit Carbon to use SLAPP lawsuits to try to gag Iowa citizens from exposing the truth should not be allowed to continue.

I am currently being prosecuted by Nyemaster oligarchs Lauridsen/Rastetter in retaliation for my May 15, 2025 whistleblower email to Iowa SOS Pate and Senator Grassley about significant grant frauds in Polk County and Jules Cutler's caucus shenanigans weaponizing her 2019 perjury about our Flying Access Residuals LLC lending automation patent where she was our attorney/registered agent; removing all Dallas County Iowa Libertarian caucus/convention locations to combine the dates and locations with Polk. Ostergren was a front for Nyemaster attorneys of the Rastetter front Conservative Energy Forum that Ketzner registered to his own house as a postcard 990 total astroturf.Former Ankeny City Manager David Jones stole all the Iowa Code 708.7 "annoying" speech criminal investigation files from Ankeny Police which have no record of the case to the private law offices of Brick Gentry and Nyemaster both fraudulently acting as prosecutors without Iowa Code 13.7 or 331.757 authorization. I made an Iowa Code 39A complaint as Iowa House 28 GOP candidate, and under Iowa Code 27B for discriminatory prosecution. See the Gluba ruling Dana Waterman Hempy is Justice Waterman's bag man. My former attorney Ben Lynch who made the bogus complaint is now defaming me as a seriously mentally impaired drug user, I can't imagine that will be good for his future business.We *must* remove the vague word "annoy" from Iowa Code 708.7 because it is too easy to weaponize. This complies with POTUS EO on MLK Day, the Dunn v Leath settlement for ISU Republican Richard Dunn, and Coates v Cincinnati which Iowa was defiant of after Iowa Supreme Court lost the Tinker case. Attached is some of the nonassaultive speech that was charged as criminally "annoying".
