Joni Ernst Says GOP, Trump ‘Worked Very Hard’ To Overturn Abortion Rights
HuffPost
“I am a mom, I am a brand new grandma, and I support life,” the Iowa Republican senator said, addressing the Arizona Supreme Court’s ruling on the procedure.
Iowa Republican Sen. Joni Ernst has weighed in on the decision of the Arizona Supreme Court to allow an 1864 near-total abortion ban to take effect.
The controversial law allows exceptions only if the pregnant person’s life is deemed at risk and includes jail time for providers who perform the medical procedure.
In an interview with Fox Business, Ernst seemed to suggest that the court’s decision is a direct result of Republican efforts to get Roe v. Wade overturned, making special note of former President Donald Trump’s role in the outcome.
“I am a mom, I am a brand new grandma, and I support life,” Ernst told Larry Kudlow. “And Senate Republicans, the GOP and President Trump really worked hard to overturn Roe v. Wade.”
Ernst said that the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs in June 2022 means that abortion will be dealt with on the state level going forward.
