We received the following email from Ben Stone, the Executive Director of the ACLU of Iowa:

***

On behalf of the members, board and staff at the ACLU of Iowa, I want
to congratulate all of you in Iowa Atheists and Freethinkers who
decided to stand up firmly for your free speech rights this past
week. We know from experience that not everyone does that, and your
courage is to be applauded. We were glad to stand with you in your
dispute with the government.
