en. Joni Ernst said on Monday during an hour-long debate for the U.S. Senate race that she did not think President Donald Trumps newest Supreme Court nominee would overturn abortion rights.
The Republicans proclamation that the reversal of Roe v. Wade is unlikely came after she announced her status as adamantly pro-life when moderator David Yepsen asked what each candidate would do if the court overturned the ruling which made abortion legal across the nation. Trump has said nominee Amy Coney Barrett could be part of a court decision to overturn that ruling.
I think the likelihood of Roe v. Wade is very minimal. I dont see that happening, truly I dont see that happening, but what we can do is certainly educate the public on how important life is, Ernst said at the Iowa PBS studios in Johnston.
The views that are being taken by Theresa Greenfield and those that are backing her from the coastsfrom California to New York, its inappropriate and not acceptable to Iowa voters.
