The bill amends Section 692A.102 of the Iowa Code by adding a new subparagraph that includes "grooming in violation of section 709.8A" as an offense subject to the offender registry. This addition aims to enhance the legal framework surrounding offenses related to grooming, thereby ensuring that individuals who commit such acts are appropriately registered and monitored.

By incorporating this new subparagraph, the bill seeks to address and penalize grooming behaviors more effectively, reflecting a commitment to protecting vulnerable populations from exploitation. The inclusion of this specific offense in the offender registry underscores the seriousness of grooming and its implications for public safety.
