A bill for an act relating to sex and gender, including those and related terms for purposes of statutory construction, indications of a person’s sex on certain vital records, gender identity under the Iowa civil rights Act, and school curricula related to gender theory. Effective date: 07/01/2025.

Added new Section 4.1A defining 'sex' as biological sex observed or verified at birth, and explicitly stating that 'gender' when used alone refers to biological differences between males and females, not gender identity.

Requires state departments and local governments collecting vital statistics to identify each person's sex as either male or female, with no third option.

Establishes a system for posting job openings that must include a statement that employers will not discriminate based on various protected characteristics including gender identity.

Amended employment and membership organization anti-discrimination provisions to include gender identity as a protected category, but only in conjunction with other protected classes.

Removed handwritten signatures, stamps, and layout artifacts including the Governor's signature block, date stamps, and decorative page elements that were present in the signed enrolled version.

Reformatted the bill text from a multi-column layout with line numbers to a clean, single-column format with sequential line numbers for easier reading and reference.

Added a header indicating this is the 'Enrolled' version of Senate File 418, clarifying the document's final status.
