Today, Iowa is implementing one of the strictest abortion bans in the entire country, banning abortion with ”impractical” and “inadequate” exceptions before most women even know they’re pregnant.
Anti-abortion politicians Zach Nunn and Mariannette Miller-Meeks paved the way for this ban in the state legislature, relentlessly attacking Iowans’ reproductive freedoms and threatening their access to abortion, contraception, and IVF. Nunn voted for an earlier version of this very ban, and both Nunn and Miller-Meeks voted for a constitutional amendment that would eliminate the right to an abortion in Iowa.
Now, Nunn and Miller-Meeks are pushing this extreme agenda in Congress. Miller-Meeks co-sponsored a national abortion ban with no exceptions for rape, incest, or the woman’s life, and Nunn supported a national abortion ban with no exceptions.
DCCC Spokesperson Mallory Payne:
“Iowa women have devastatingly had their reproductive freedom ripped away today, thanks to the relentless, yearslong efforts of Zach Nunn and Mariannette Miller-Meeks. Unfortunately, Nunn and Miller-Meeks’ anti-abortion crusade is far from over; the next item on their agenda is banning abortion nationwide. Voters will remember their dangerous anti-abortion records and reject them in November.”
