As reported by Jason Hancock in The Iowa Independent:

"Hurley was responding to a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that said gay men have higher rates of HIV and syphilis than the general population. Because of these figures, if the state allows gay men to get married they are 'sanctioning self destructive behavior.'

'The Iowa Legislature outlawed smoking [in some public places] in an effort to improve health and reduce the medical costs that are often passed on to the state,' Hurley said. 'The secondhand impacts of certain homosexual acts are arguably more destructive, and potentially more costly to society than smoking.'"
