Washington, D.C. — The only Democrat in Iowa’s congressional delegation says she’s ticked off about the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade.
Congresswoman Cindy Axne says Democrats at the national level are working to codify abortion rights, but it’s challenging given Senate debate rules.
Axne hosted a roundtable with abortion rights supporters at Planned Parenthood administrative offices in Des Moines on Wednesday.
Axne, who is from West Des Moines, is seeking a third term in the U.S. House. Wednesday night, former President Donald Trump has just endorsed Axne’s Republican opponent, Zach Nunn of Bondurant. Trump called Nunn a conservative warrior who will support farmers, cut taxes and protect Second Amendment gun rights.
