Reynolds Opposed Over-The-Counter Birth Control Legislation Two Years Ago, Yet Two Weeks Before An Election Will Say Anything To Get Elected
This is just the latest example of Governor Reynolds willingness to say or do anything to win an election, including making false promises to voters nearly two weeks before election day.
The truth is Governor Reynolds’ disastrous policies on women’s health care have turned Iowa into a “contraceptive desert.” From her aggressive push to defund Planned Parenthood, one of the largest providers of low-cost contraceptives, to signing the most extreme anti-women’s health care law in the country, women have lost access to quality health care, especially family planning services, under Reynolds’ leadership. Newly released state data shows a staggering 50 percent drop in family planning program enrollment and a 73 percent decline in family planning services since Planned Parenthood’s defunding that has forced four clinics to close their doors and 15,000 Iowans to lose their local provider.
