President Barack Obama’s directive on transgender bathroom use has been met with a lot of opposition, and now Republican Rep. Steve King (Iowa) is calling for “civil disobedience” in response to the new guidelines.
“We should call for civil disobedience here,” King told 1040 WHO radio host Simon Conway, of Des Moines, Iowa, Tuesday. “And there’s no reason for us to follow an unconstitutional edict from the president, who is on his way out the door.”
