Des Moines, IA, On June 28, 2024 - Iowa GOP Co-Chair Linda Upmeyer released the following statement in response to the Iowa Supreme Court ordering the district court to dissolve the injunction on Iowa's Fetal Heartbeat Law:

"There is no right more sacred than life, and protecting the unborn is incredibly important. Iowa, led by Republicans, is moving in the right direction of protecting life while out-of-touch, far-left progressive groups advocate for abortion up until birth. Iowa voters elect legislators to represent their values, and Iowans have made their voices heard: we need to defend the defenseless and continue to value life."
