Iowa School Nurse Organization Legislation

Laws and policies (Federal Hatch Act, state and local laws and policies, and personnel policies) restrict political advocacy while at work.

All advocacy must occur away from the workplace, off the clock hours, and out of uniform (clothing, ID badges, insignia that identifies work place).




For ISNO to accomplish our goals, individual members
must get involved and contact our elected officials!


If you have knowledge regarding legislative issues or inside contacts, please let us know. We welcome your input!
