Gov. Reynolds joins women leaders in discussing pro-life movement
DES MOINES, Iowa — Gov. Reynolds will be discussing pro-life movements and the role of state lawmakers in protecting life with women leaders including South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and former U.S Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley.
This press conference comes days before oral arguments in the Mississippi case, Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. The Courts will hear the oral arguments December 1st.
The Supreme Court will then address whether all pre-viability abortion limits are unconstitutional. Right now, Mississippi has a Gestational Age Act in place, limiting abortions after 15 weeks.
Nikki Haley, Kristi Noem and Kim Reynolds exemplify strong pro-life, pro-woman leadership – championing pro-life legislation in their states with courage and compassion. They represent thousands of women lawmakers nationwide – from statehouses to Congress – who are poised to lead fearlessly on the life issue as Roe v. Wade is finally dismantled,” said SBA List President Marjorie Dannenfelser. “In almost 50 years since Roe, women have achieved historic gains in representation, no thanks to the seven unelected men who imposed abortion on demand until birth on America under the guise of women’s rights. Women’s voices are heard now more than ever, as legislatures acting on their constituents’ will advance hundreds of new pro-life laws a year, including limits on late-term abortion when unborn babies can feel pain. It is time to modernize our law and let the people and their elected representatives protect vulnerable women and children.
SBA has a network of 900,000 pro-life Americans. This includes 79 women lawmakers who filed an amicus brief in the Dobbs case calling on the Court to reverse Roe and Planned Parenthood v Casey.
The virtual press conference will be held Monday the 29th at 10:30 AM CT.
