Sign Our Petition: Tell the Iowa Health Dept. to Stop Erasing Same-Sex Parents

Show your support for Lambda Legal Plaintiffs Jenny and Jessica Buntemeyer. After their son Brayden was delivered stillborn, the Iowa Health Department (IDPH) sent them a death certificate with Jenny's name whited out.

Don't let the IDPH erase Jenny from Brayden’s death certificate just because he had two moms. Join our petition and send a letter to IDPH Director Marianette Miller-Meeks. Let her know that Jenny and Jessica are a legally married couple in the state of Iowa—and they should be treated like any other married couple who are grieving the death of a stillborn baby.
