Fortunately for women in Iowa, Christina Bohannan is taking another shot at MAGA-Republican Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks in Iowa’s first congressional district.
Not only does she possess an amazing resume, Bohannan is a strong advocate for women’s rights, including the right to control our own bodies. She believes that the rights that women held for 50 years before the Republican appointees on the Supreme Court struck down Roe v. Wade, should be restored.
“My view is we should go back to Roe v. Wade,” Bohannan said in an August interview. “No more, no less. That’s what people support.”
Bohannan has said she intends to talk about access to reproductive health care throughout her campaign.
Our current representative has consistently shown us that she will not stand up to protect women’s rights. Miller-Meeks thinks she and her fellow Republican politicians should be in the doctor’s office with you and has voted for bills that included a nationwide ban.
Rep. Miller-Meeks defends her support for national abortion restrictions
“She also defended her position supporting a 15-week nationwide ban on abortion with exceptions. cbs2iowa.com
But in 2021 Miller-Meeks co-sponsored a bill that contained no exceptions, the so-called “Life at Conception Act.” This week Miller-Meeks said she will continue her support of the legislation she co-sponsored in the past, including a constitutional amendment that would eliminate women’s rights in Iowa and add a national abortion ban with no exceptions for rape, incest, or to save a woman’s life.
The Gazette reported in August, 2023:
Iowa Republican U.S. Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks drew jeers from a crowd in Iowa City Monday over her opposition to banning semi-automatic rifles and support of the Second Amendment. Miller-Meeks… also received criticism from local medical providers for co-sponsoring a proposal that would declare that personhood begins at conception.
Miller-Meeks is a party-first MAGA Republican. Her stated first priority during the last campaign was to fire tens of thousands of IRS employees. Check out this short clip and compare the two candidates. It will be a clear choice which one is thinking about helping Iowa and which one is not.
