Yes. Same-sex marriage is currently legal in all US states, including California, and there is no citizenship or even residency requirement for obtaining a marriage license. A citizen may marry a foreigner or two foreigners may marry (e.g., tourists on vacation) and the gender(s) of the parties is irrelevant.

Of course they can. The marriage can result in a green card too, since that is a federal law issue and the federal government does now recognize marriage.

Is same-sex marriage with a foreigner legal in Iowa?

Yes. The rules are the same for same-sex couples as for any other couple. The foreigner can use his/her foreign passport as ID. They will ask for a Social Security Number, but in the case of the foreigner, the correct answer is "I don't have one." If they ask why you don't have one, the correct answer is "I'm not eligible to receive one because I am not a US citizen." There is no residency or citizenship requirement for marriage licenses in Iowa.
