A pro-family policy group today is taking issue with a proclamation Gov. Chet Culver signed that declared a "transgender day of remembrance" in Iowa last year.

The Iowa Family Policy Center ACTION released a copy of the proclamation that Culver signed last Nov. 20 which the Pleasant Hill-based group acquired from the governor's office through a Freedom of Information Act request.

The organization's president, Chuck Hurley, said he views the proclamation as an attempt by Culver to use the power of the governor's office "to promote sexual confusion and deviant behavior."
